Periosteal Raspatories

Description

Periosteal Raspatories

This large periosteal raspatory has a broad 21 mm blade on a 28 cm body. It strips periosteum and muscle from large bones quickly.

Broad blade, long reach

A 21 mm blade covers a wide strip with every stroke. Meanwhile, the 28 cm length reaches deep surfaces. Together, these features speed up big exposures.

Where it works

Surgeons use it on the femur, the pelvis and the spine. It also helps in hip and knee revision. Therefore it suits large orthopedic trays.

Using a large periosteal raspatory

Begin at an incision through the periosteum. Then push the broad blade along the bone. Because the blade is wide, fewer strokes clear the surface.

Pairing

Keep a narrow raspatory nearby for corners and edges. Then use this broad one for long, flat stretches. That pairing makes exposure faster.

Big exposures

Large exposures, such as a hip revision, involve long stretches of bone. Therefore a broad blade clears them in far fewer strokes. Meanwhile, the long body keeps the hand above the wound.

Care

Our support behind the raspatory

Teams receive three years against manufacturing defects across this raspatory at no added cost. Each raspatory goes through a hand examination in Atlanta prior to packing.
