Frequently asked questions

Does this scalpel have a safety mechanism?

Yes, it features a three-position design that allows you to protect, use, and securely lock the blade. It includes an integrated status indicator to confirm when the blade is locked for safe disposal, minimizing the risk of accidental injury.

Can I operate the safety sheath with one hand?

Absolutely. The McKesson Prevent B is designed for simple, single-handed activation, allowing you to maintain focus and control during procedures without needing to use your other hand to engage the safety mechanism.

Is this product safe for latex-sensitive patients?

No. This product is strictly disposable and single-use only. It is designed to be discarded in an appropriate sharps container immediately after use in accordance with facility and national regulations.

What happens after the blade is locked for disposal?
