Yes, the Sklar Hohmann Bone Elevator is crafted from durable, medical-grade stainless steel. This ensures that the instrument is built to withstand the rigors of repeated clinical use and sterilization cycles while maintaining its integrity over time.

Does the ergonomic design improve surgical precision?

Absolutely. The instrument features a slim, flat handle paired with a leaf-shaped tip. This ergonomic combination is specifically engineered to provide:

  • Superior control during tissue manipulation.
  • Enhanced accuracy when performing tissue contouring.
  • Greater comfort for the surgeon during complex orthopedic procedures.
Is the curvature designed for optimal field visibility?

Yes, the elevator features a double ‘s’ curvature. This specialized design is critical for orthopedic surgery because it:

  • Provides the necessary leverage to retract tissue effectively.
  • Offers an unobstructed, clear view of the surgical site.
  • Allows for superior reach in deep or confined surgical fields.
Is this tool suitable for repeated sterilization?

Yes, this is a reusable instrument designed to endure the demanding conditions of surgical environments. Because it is manufactured from high-quality stainless steel, it is fully compatible with standard autoclave and sterilization protocols used in professional medical facilities.

Yes, the Sklar Hohmann Bone Elevator is not made with natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice for surgical teams and patients with latex sensitivities.

Does it meet TAA compliance standards?

Yes, this instrument is fully TAA compliant, ensuring it meets the regulatory standards required for procurement in government and federal healthcare settings.

What is the total length of the elevator?

The Sklar Hohmann Bone Elevator has an overall instrument length of 9-1/2 inches, which provides an ideal balance between reach and manual control for orthopedic access.

Are there any assembly requirements before use?

No assembly is required. The instrument arrives as a single, precision-engineered piece, ready to be cleaned and sterilized according to your facility’s protocols before its first use in the surgical theater.

How should this instrument be prepared before surgery?

As this product is delivered non-sterile, it must undergo a thorough cleaning and sterilization process according to your institution’s standard operating procedures for surgical instruments prior to entering the sterile field.

Can this be used for various orthopedic procedures?

Yes, it is a versatile tool designed specifically for orthopedic surgical theater use. Its unique curvature and leaf-shaped tip make it a standard, essential component for orthopedic procedure kits where retracting and moving tissue to maintain access is required.
