Knotting Micro Forceps

Description

Knotting Micro Forceps

Knotting micro forceps tie fine sutures in microsurgery. They come in 15 and 15.5 cm lengths.

Built for knots

The tips close precisely along their length. So suture stays put while you form each throw.

A slim body

The narrow arms keep the view open. Meanwhile, the round grip lets you roll the instrument in your fingers.

Two lengths

The 15 cm size suits close work. By contrast, the 15.5 cm size gives a touch more reach.

Where they help

Knotting micro forceps suit vessel and nerve repair. Then a second pair, or a needle holder, completes the tying set. Also, surgeons often keep them separate from grasping forceps to protect the tips. In addition, the knotting tips work well with a micro needle holder in the other hand. Meanwhile, the round handle lets you rotate the tips without moving your wrist. Therefore the forceps suit long repairs where fine control matters. Also, knotting micro forceps suit surgeons who tie instrument knots rather than hand knots, since the tips keep the thread under control at every throw.

Cleaning knotting micro forceps

Rinse the knotting tips gently, since fine ends bend easily. Next, dry the forceps with a lint-free cloth. Then keep them in their own slot, away from heavier instruments.
