Harrington Fiber Optic Retractor With Light Guide

The lighted Harrington retractor brings light deep into the abdomen or chest. A fiber optic guide runs along its heart-shaped blade.

Four configurations

Choose a 40 or 62 mm wide blade, each 127 mm long. Then decide whether to add a suction channel. That gives four combinations in total.

Why light the lighted Harrington retractor blade

Overhead lights often miss deep corners. Also, a guide on the blade shines straight into them. Consequently, the surgeon works with fewer shadows.

Adding suction

The suction version clears fluid at the blade tip. So a separate sucker is not always needed. Meanwhile, the plain lit version stays slimmer.

Typical use

Upper abdominal, liver and thoracic surgeons use it. It also helps in bariatric cases with deep fields. In addition, many teams choose the wider blade for liver work.

Connections

Hook up a light cable through a brand adaptor, then push theatre tubing onto the suction spigot. Test light and vacuum together before the first incision.

Lighted Harrington retractor options

• 40 or 62 mm blade, 127 mm long
• Fiber optic light guide
• Optional suction channel

Care for lit blades

Flush the suction channel after use, if fitted. Clean the optical ends with lens tissue only. After washing, let it dry on a rack before it goes back in the set.

Before you buy

Each retractor has full cover of three years against manufacturing defects starting at dispatch. A team member in Atlanta examines the retractor by hand ahead of dispatch. Browse our whole general surgical range too. The order FAQ addresses payment questions. Many buyers also look at the plain Harrington blades. We gladly check sizes before you buy. Steel in surgical instruments meets a public standard, namely ASTM F899.
