Description

Phaneuf Hysterectomy And Vaginal Forceps 1/2th

Phaneuf forceps are a hysterectomy and vaginal clamp with 1×2 teeth at the tip. They come straight or curved at a listed length of 20 cm.

1×2 teeth at the tip

A single tooth on one jaw meets two teeth on the other when the clamp closes. So it holds tissue firmly without slipping off the end. Also, the tip teeth help when tissue tends to retract.

Straight or curved

A straight clamp keeps the jaws in line with the shaft. By contrast, the curved version angles the tip, which helps around the cervix and vaginal vault. Therefore many teams stock both.

About the length

The site lists the clamp at 20 cm. However, the measured length runs closer to 21.5 cm. So allow for that extra reach when you plan trays.

When to choose Phaneuf forceps

Pick Phaneuf forceps when the step calls for a secure bite at the tip. Meanwhile, an atraumatic-style clamp may suit tissue you want to spare. Then keep both styles within reach.

Cleaning Phaneuf forceps

Pay close attention to the tip teeth, since debris hides between them. First, scrub the tip with a small brush under running water. Afterward, dry it thoroughly and confirm the teeth still mesh cleanly.
