Frequently asked questions
Are these scissors suitable for repeated sterilization?
Yes, these are reusable surgical instruments manufactured from high-quality stainless steel. They are specifically designed to withstand the rigors of repeated sterilization cycles in clinical environments.
How does the reach compare to standard surgical scissors?
With an overall length of 12 inches, these Crafoord scissors offer a significantly longer reach than typical cardiovascular scissors, making them ideal for deep tissue access during thoracotomies.
Is the material safe for patients with sensitivities?
Absolutely. These scissors are not made with natural rubber latex, ensuring they are safe for use on patients with latex sensitivities.
Do these feature a locking mechanism?
No, this specific model features a non-ratcheted, finger ring handle design. This allows for smooth, manual control during delicate excision procedures.
Are these instruments TAA compliant?
Yes, the Sklar Crafoord Scissors are fully TAA Compliant, meeting the necessary requirements for federal and institutional procurement.
What is the primary benefit of the blunt tip design?
The curved blunt tips are engineered to provide precision and safety during excisions, such as lobectomies, by minimizing the risk of unintentional tissue trauma during deep surgical access.
Should I expect these to arrive sterile?
These instruments are shipped non-sterile. They are intended to be processed and sterilized by your facility’s internal protocols prior to their first use.
What quality standard are these manufactured to?
These scissors are produced under the Sklar or Grade quality standard, reflecting the brand’s commitment to high-grade surgical instrumentation and durability.
Are these suitable for non-thoracic surgical procedures?
While these scissors are specifically optimized for thoracotomies—where the 12-inch length and curved, non-angled jaw provide a distinct surgical advantage—they are high-quality tools that may be utilized in any procedure requiring this specific reach and profile.
How durable is the construction of these scissors?
They are constructed from robust stainless steel and are built to handle the demands of professional operating rooms. Their durability is further supported by the manufacturer’s lifetime warranty.
