Description

Econo Sterile Spencer (Littauer) Suture Scissors are a ready-to-use, sterile, disposable, floor-grade instrument used for suture removal. These scissors have a small hook shaped tip on one blade that slides under sutures to slightly lift them before cutting for removal. This hook also holds the suture so it does not slip off the blade of the scissors prior to cutting. Littauer suture scissors typically have larger, less delicate tips than Spencer Stitch Scissors, and are often used for removing larger sutures. They should not be used for cutting tissue. Econo Sterile instruments are ready-to-use, sterile, disposable, floor-grade instruments sold in bulk quantities. This product is straight with smooth, blunt/blunt tips and a length of 3-1/2 inches. They are sold in cases of 25.
