Satinsky Cardiovascular Surgery Scissors

Description

Satinsky Cardiovascular Surgery Scissors

Satinsky scissors combine long reach with an angled design for cardiovascular work. They come in 24.5 cm and 25 cm.

Long and angled

Deep vessels sit far from the incision in a large chest or abdomen. So the extra length puts the tips where the surgeon needs them. Meanwhile, the angle keeps both tips visible.

Typical tasks

Surgeons use them to cut and trim tissue around large vessels. Also, they help with deep cardiac dissection. Because of their reach, they suit aortic and major vessel cases.

Pairing on a set

Pair Satinsky scissors with shorter angled scissors for surface work. Then the team can switch lengths without delay. Plus, one long pair usually covers a whole case.

Two close sizes

Both sizes give similar reach into a deep field. However, some teams standardize on one to simplify ordering. Choose the size that matches your current trays. Also, the two lengths differ by only half a centimeter, so choose by feel.

Reprocessing Satinsky scissors

Clean the angled blades by hand with a soft brush. Next, flush the pivot to clear tissue from inside the joint. Finally, lay them flat in a long tray so the tips stay protected.
