Description

Sklar Utility Scissors are a multipurpose instrument used for cutting non-sterile materials such as dressings, casts, and surgical drapes. These scissors are angled and have one serrated blade and one smooth blade. The flattened, wide, blunt tip on the serrated blade greatly reduces the likelihood of skin being nicked if the scissors are used for cutting material that is on the patient, such as clothing or bandages. They should never be used to cut tissue or sutures. One plastic finger ring is larger than the other for maximized control while cutting.

Frequently asked questions

Are these scissors safe for cutting clothing on patients?

Yes, these scissors are specifically engineered with a flattened, wide, blunt tip on the serrated blade. This design significantly minimizes the risk of accidental skin nicks when removing bandages or clothing directly on a patient.

Can I use these for surgical tissue or sutures?

No, these utility scissors are designed strictly for non-sterile materials such as surgical drapes, casts, and dressings. They are not intended for use on human tissue or sutures.

How do the blades handle tough materials?

The scissors feature a hybrid blade configuration to ensure cutting efficiency:

  • One serrated edge: Provides superior grip on slick or tough materials.
  • One smooth edge: Allows for clean, precise cutting strokes.
Are these suitable for users with different hand sizes?

The handles are ergonomically designed with offset, mismatched finger rings. This includes one larger opening, which provides improved leverage and maximized control for various hand sizes.

Are these scissors made with latex?

No, the Sklar Econo Multi-Cut Utility Scissors are not made with natural rubber latex, making them a safe choice for environments or patients with latex sensitivities.

Is the magenta color useful in a busy clinic?

Yes, the vibrant magenta handle color is specifically chosen for easy identification. It allows staff to quickly distinguish these utility scissors from other stainless steel surgical instruments in a high-pressure clinical setting.

Do I need to sterilize these before the first use?

No, these are provided as sterile-grade instruments and are ready for immediate use in clinical environments.

Why is an angled silhouette preferred for these scissors?

The angled design allows for better visibility and easier maneuverability when cutting materials against a surface, such as when sliding the blade beneath a bandage or piece of clothing on a patient’s body.

Are these durable enough for heavy daily use?

These scissors feature blades crafted from high-quality stainless steel. While they are designed to be disposable to maintain sterility and efficiency in medical triage, they are built to be robust and reliable during their intended use cycle.

How many scissors are in each case?

Each case (CS) contains 25 individual units of the 7-inch Econo Sterile Multi-Cut Utility Scissors.
