Description

The Sklar Blue Mini Emmett Hook, which may also be known as an Emmett Iris Hook, is most commonly used in electrosurgical OB/GYN procedures involving the uterus. The hook is at the end of a long, narrow handle, often 9 or 12 inches in length. Sklar Blue electrosurgical instruments feature high quality stainless steel with an insulated coating. This safe coating prevents radio frequency currents from being transmitted through the instrument which reduces the burning of non-targeted tissue. Sklar Blue instruments are fully autoclavable and may also be cleaned ultrasonically. All Sklar Blue coated instruments comply with biological testing requirements for cytotoxicity, sensitization regulatory, and ISO 10993 requirements. They also comply with the Pre-Vacuum and Gravity Cycle Steam Sterilization Validation of ANSI/AAMI ST79. Sklar Blue electrosurgical coatings are guaranteed for one year against manufacturing defects. This product is straight with a 4mm hook tip and an overall length of 12 inches.

Frequently asked questions

Does the coating effectively prevent thermal injury?

Yes, the instrument features a specialized insulated coating designed specifically for electrosurgical safety. This layer prevents the transmission of radio frequency currents through the shaft, which significantly reduces the risk of inadvertent thermal injury to non-targeted tissues.

Is the instrument built with high-quality materials?

The Sklar Blue Emmett Iris Hook is constructed from premium-grade stainless steel. This robust base is then precision-coated with a high-performance, non-conductive nylon layer, ensuring both structural durability and electrical safety during delicate surgical procedures.

Is this instrument compatible with standard autoclave sterilization?

It is fully validated for hospital-grade cleaning and sterilization protocols. Key features include:

  • Fully Autoclavable: Designed to withstand standard steam sterilization cycles.
  • Ultrasonically Cleanable: Compatible with modern ultrasonic cleaning equipment.
  • Standards Compliance: Conforms to ANSI/AAMI ST79 standards for sterilization validation.
Does this meet rigorous surgical regulatory standards?

Yes, this instrument is manufactured to meet demanding medical standards. It complies with biological testing requirements for cytotoxicity and sensitization, meets ISO 10993 standards, and is TAA compliant.

Is this instrument optimized for OB/GYN surgical procedures?

Absolutely. It is specifically engineered for gynecological operations, particularly those involving the uterus. The design provides the necessary control and reach required for precision tissue manipulation in these specialized environments.

Is the tip designed for precise tissue manipulation?

Yes, the distal end features a straight configuration with a 4mm hook tip. This specific size and shape, combined with a quick-release style configuration, allow for the exact engagement required in electrosurgical workflows.

Is the 12-inch length suitable for deep surgical access?

The 12-inch length is specifically chosen to provide an extended reach for the surgeon. This design ensures the practitioner has adequate distance from the handle controls while maintaining the precision needed to access deeper surgical sites comfortably.

Can this instrument be safely reused after sterilization?

Yes, this is a fully reusable instrument. It is built to withstand repeated cleaning and sterilization protocols, making it a reliable, long-term component for an operating room’s surgical instrument set.
