Description

Overview

The Embryotomy Knife from Intrace USA is a specialized knife used in large-animal obstetrics. It performs an embryotomy, the sectioning of a non-viable fetus, when delivery cannot otherwise proceed safely. Surgical-grade stainless steel construction meets the same FDA, CE, and ISO 13485 compliance standards as the rest of our catalog. It withstands repeated sterilization for daily clinical or field use.

A protected, curved blade profile is designed for use within the birth canal. A comfortable grip supports controlled, deliberate cutting. Stainless steel construction withstands sterilization between uses.

Care and Maintenance

Clean this instrument promptly after each use, autoclave according to standard sterilization protocol, and inspect the working end before every use to confirm proper function. Proper care extends the working life of this stainless steel instrument significantly.

Compliance and Quality

As a result, the stainless steel resists corrosion. It keeps its edge through repeated autoclave cycles.

We manufacture every instrument to FDA, CE, and ISO 13485 standards and inspect it before shipping from our Atlanta, GA facility.
