Adson Hemostatic Forceps Curved – 18cm Long Hemostat
Adson Hemostatic Forceps Curved 18cm are long, delicate hemostats designed for clamping small and medium-sized blood vessels and handling soft tissue with precision. Their 18cm (approximately 7-1/4″) overall length and slim shanks provide excellent reach into deep or narrow operative fields while keeping the surgeon’s hand comfortably outside the immediate site. The curved jaws follow the natural contours of tissue planes and improve visibility when working around structures. Manufactured by Adas Instruments from high-quality stainless steel, these forceps are reusable and compatible with standard hospital sterilization processes.
Design Features and Handling
The Adson Hemostatic Forceps feature fine, serrated jaws that provide a secure grip on vessels and tissues while helping to minimize crushing or slippage. The curved profile improves access around corners and into confined spaces, making the instrument particularly useful in breast, neck and general soft tissue surgery. Long, slender shafts keep the working end visible and controllable, and the ratcheted ring handles allow the surgeon to lock the forceps in place at varying levels of pressure. This combination of length, curvature, and delicate serration supports precise hemostasis and atraumatic tissue handling.
Surgical Applications of Adson curved hemostat 18cm
- Clamping small and medium-sized blood vessels to control bleeding in general surgery.
- Use in breast and neck surgery where long, curved hemostats are required for deep or narrow sites.
- Assistance in the dissection and retraction of delicate tissue layers.
- Maintaining a clean, blood-free operative field by securing bleeding points.
- General soft tissue procedures where precise hemostasis and fine control are needed.
