Frequently asked questions
Is this retractor suitable for long-term clinical use?
Yes, this instrument is designed for durability and longevity. It is constructed from high-grade stainless steel, making it fully reusable. Furthermore, it is backed by a lifetime warranty, reflecting Sklar’s confidence in its build quality for professional environments.
Is this device safe for patients with latex sensitivities?
Absolutely. This Sklar Breisky Retractor is explicitly manufactured not made with natural rubber latex, ensuring it is safe for use with patients who have latex allergies or sensitivities.
What is the primary advantage of the bayonet-shaped handle?
The bayonet-shaped handle design is a key feature that curves the blade back from the grip. This configuration significantly improves the surgeon’s line-of-sight and manipulation, providing an increased opening for clearer, more thorough vaginal wall examinations.
Does this meet specific government procurement requirements?
Yes, this instrument is TAA compliant. This makes it an excellent choice for healthcare facilities that require products meeting Trade Agreements Act standards for institutional use.
Is the tip design safe for patient comfort?
Yes, the retractor features a blunt tip configuration combined with a smooth working edge. These design choices help ensure that the instrument is atraumatic during use, prioritizing patient comfort during gynecological procedures.
Does the instrument arrive ready for immediate sterilization?
The instrument is supplied in factory new condition, ensuring optimal performance right out of the packaging. Note that it arrives non-sterile, so it must be processed according to your facility’s standard sterilization protocols before the first use.
How large is the actual blade area?
This specific model features a blade size of 30mm, which is designed to provide maximum operative exposure for vaginal wall examinations.
Is this a versatile tool for standard surgical trays?
Yes, its design makes it highly functional for standard gynecological examination trays. Its robust stainless steel construction ensures it integrates easily into routine reusable surgical instrument sets.
Is the material resistant to corrosion over time?
Constructed from high-grade surgical stainless steel, this retractor is specifically chosen for its resistance to corrosion, strength, and ability to withstand repeated sterilization cycles, ensuring it maintains its integrity over years of use.
Does the retractor feature a straight or angled curvature?
The instrument features a straight curvature along the shaft, which, when paired with the bayonet handle offset, provides the precise leverage and positioning needed for effective retraction.
