Frequently asked questions
Does this retractor allow for hands-free operation?
Yes, this instrument features a ratcheted locking mechanism. This allows the retractor to remain securely in place once positioned, effectively freeing up surgical personnel to focus on other tasks during the procedure.
Is the material durable enough for repeated sterilization?
Absolutely. This retractor is constructed from high-grade stainless steel, which is specifically chosen for its longevity and ability to withstand the rigors of repeated sterilization cycles in professional environments.
Are the prongs designed for secure tissue engagement?
Yes, each tip features a single sharp prong that is turned outward at a 90-degree angle. This specific design is engineered for effective and reliable grasping and retraction of tissue in confined surgical sites.
Is this product safe for patients with latex allergies?
Yes, this instrument is not made with natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice for patients with latex sensitivities.
What is the total length of the instrument?
The Sklar Gelpi Retractor has a total length of 6-1/2 inches, making it an ideal size for maintaining visibility and access in smaller operative fields.
Does this arrive ready to use out of the package?
The retractor is supplied non-sterile. As with all professional surgical-grade stainless steel instruments, it must be properly cleaned and sterilized according to your facility’s protocols before being used in a procedure.
Is this instrument compliant with trade agreement regulations?
Yes, this product is TAA compliant, meeting the necessary requirements for procurement in settings that mandate adherence to the Trade Agreements Act.
Does this model include tracking capabilities?
Yes, this specific model is CensiTrac marked, which facilitates easy integration into asset management and instrument tracking systems commonly used in modern surgical facilities.
Is the construction of this retractor high-quality?
The Sklar Gelpi Retractor is manufactured to high standards in Factory New condition and is backed by a Lifetime warranty, reflecting the manufacturer’s confidence in the quality and durability of the stainless steel build.
Is this retractor suitable for small surgical sites?
It is specifically engineered for that purpose. The straight body design combined with the precise ratcheted tension control makes it an excellent tool for retraction in tight, confined spaces where manual holding would be difficult.
