Frequently asked questions
Are these scissors durable enough for repeated sterilization?
Yes, these are designed for long-term professional use. Constructed from high-grade stainless steel, they are fully reusable and built to withstand the rigorous sterilization protocols required in clinical environments.
Does the curved design help with specific surgical tasks?
Absolutely. The curved configuration is specifically engineered to provide better visibility and access during deep or obstructed dissection. It is particularly effective for controlled tissue separation in urologic, gynecological, and thoracic procedures.
Is the material safe for patients with latex allergies?
Yes, the product is latex-free. It is not manufactured using natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice for diverse patient populations.
What is the benefit of the Harrington-Mayo design?
The Harrington-Mayo design combines the trusted, beveled cutting edge of standard Mayo scissors with significantly extended shanks. This hybrid design offers the precision of a dissecting scissor while providing the extra reach needed for complex abdominal or cardiovascular surgeries.
Are these suitable for blunt dissection?
Yes, they feature blunt/blunt (B/B) tips, which are specifically intended for safe, controlled blunt dissection where minimizing trauma to surrounding structures is critical.
Is this instrument compliant with trade regulations?
Yes, the Sklar Mayo-Harrington Scissors are TAA compliant, meeting the necessary standards for government and institutional procurement.
Are these scissors considered medical grade?
Yes, these are factory new, professional surgical instruments manufactured by Sklar. They are engineered for consistent performance in demanding operating room environments.
How long are the shanks on this specific model?
This model features an 11-inch total instrument length. The extended shanks are a key feature of the Harrington-Mayo design, providing the necessary leverage and reach for deeper surgical access.
Do the finger rings provide a secure grip?
Yes, the scissors are designed with traditional, ergonomic finger rings. These ensure a stable, secure grasp for the surgeon, allowing for precise control during delicate dissection tasks.
Are these scissors delivered ready to use?
They are supplied non-sterile, which is standard for reusable surgical instrumentation. Please ensure they undergo your facility’s validated sterilization procedures before their first use in surgery.
