Frequently asked questions
Is titanium the ideal material for vascular surgery?
Yes. Titanium is a preferred material for surgical instrumentation because it offers:
- High strength-to-weight ratio: Ensures the tool is robust yet exceptionally lightweight.
- Biocompatibility: Minimizes tissue reaction during delicate surgical procedures.
- Durability: Maintains precision over time for consistent performance.
How does the 70-degree angle assist in pediatric procedures?
The 70-degree angle is specifically engineered to support the CASTANEDA clamping technique. This geometry is optimized to provide:
- Better visualization in confined pediatric surgical fields.
- Superior access to blood vessels, allowing for precise occlusion without putting unnecessary strain on surrounding delicate tissues.
Is this clamp suitable for very fine, delicate vessels?
Absolutely. The instrument is designed for atraumatic handling of sensitive pediatric tissues. Its lightweight construction—weighing only 15 grams—allows for the delicate tactile control required during complex vascular work.
Are these instruments delivered in sterile condition?
As this is a Factory New instrument from BR Surgical, it arrives in pristine, unused condition. This ensures that the device meets the highest standards for performance and is ready to be integrated into your facility’s sterilization protocols before use.
What is the total length of this vascular clamp?
This specific CASTANEDA vascular clamp has a total length of 6 inches, providing the optimal reach and leverage necessary for pediatric vascular procedures.
Does this tool provide consistent pressure for occlusion?
The design follows the specialized CASTANEDA principles, which focus on precise manipulation and occlusion. By combining a 70-degree angle with a high-grade titanium build, it provides the reliability needed for safe and effective vessel control.
Can I expect high durability for repeated surgical use?
Yes. Because it is crafted from high-grade titanium, this clamp is built to withstand the rigors of frequent surgical use and repeated processing/sterilization cycles while maintaining its structural integrity.
Is this clamp strictly for pediatric applications?
Yes, it is specialized specifically for pediatric vascular surgery. Its dimensions, weight, and angle are calibrated to meet the unique anatomical requirements of pediatric patients.
How should I reference this specific model for reordering?
The manufacturer part number (MPN) for this specific 70-degree titanium configuration is BR60-98304. Utilizing this code ensures you receive the exact instrument specifications required for your surgical team.
How is the weight of this instrument optimized?
Weighing only 15 grams, the clamp is designed to reduce hand fatigue for the surgeon during lengthy or repetitive procedures, allowing for steadier, more precise movements in the operating theater.
