Frequently asked questions
Does this instrument support electronic asset tracking?
Yes, this instrument is CensiTrac marked. This specialized marking allows for seamless integration with modern tracking and inventory management systems, helping healthcare facilities maintain accurate records during sterile processing.
Is the stainless steel durable enough for repeated clinical use?
Absolutely. These forceps are manufactured from high-quality, professional-grade stainless steel, specifically engineered to withstand the rigors of repeated surgical use and autoclave sterilization cycles.
How do the tips assist during delicate procedures?
The forceps feature fenestrated, serrated tips. The combination of the open-window (fenestrated) design and the fine serrations along the grasping surface ensures a secure, controlled grip on placental tissue, minimizing the risk of slippage.
Is this instrument safe for patients with latex allergies?
Yes, the Sklar Kelly Placenta Forceps are not made with natural rubber latex, making them a safe choice for surgical environments where latex-free protocols are required.

As a reusable surgical instrument, it requires standard autoclave sterilization processes. We recommend following your institution’s specific protocols for high-level disinfection to ensure the instrument remains sterile and functional.
Is the curvature optimized for reach and access?

Are these forceps compliant with federal procurement standards?
Yes, this product is TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant, ensuring it meets the requirements for use in government and institutional medical facilities.
Does the design allow for precise manual control?
The instrument is built with traditional finger ring handles, which are industry-standard for providing surgeons with maximum dexterity, tactile feedback, and control during delicate procedures.
Is the product shipped as a sterile item?
