Description

Sklar Stevens Tenotomy Scissors are used for delicate dissection and cutting, commonly in ophthalmologic, neurological, and plastic surgery procedures. Tenotomy scissors have long handles and small, sharp blades with sharp or blunt wedge-shaped tips. The long handles allow the surgeon to have an adequate grip and control while dissecting or cutting in small or narrow areas. Stevens tenotomy scissors are available straight or curved and with sharp or blunt tips, in order to accommodate different procedures. Sharp tips allow precise dissection and cutting of delicate tissue, while blunt tipped blades are used more often for dissecting and cutting mucus membranes. This product is curved with smooth edges, blunt/blunt tips and a length of 4 inches. It also features a ribbon handle.

Frequently asked questions

Are these scissors suitable for delicate tissue dissection?

Yes, these scissors are specifically engineered for delicate dissection. The blunt/blunt tip configuration is ideal for working with mucus membranes and tissues where a precise, non-acute entry is required.

Is the stainless steel material durable for repeated use?

Absolutely. These scissors are constructed from high-quality, professional-grade stainless steel designed for repeated sterilization and surgical use, ensuring long-term durability in a clinical environment.

What is the benefit of the ribbon-style handles?

The ribbon handle style is specifically designed to provide an enhanced, secure grip. This offers surgeons superior control and tactile feedback when performing fine, intricate maneuvers in narrow surgical fields.

Does the curved design assist with access in tight areas?

Yes, the graceful curvature of the blades allows for optimal access and visibility when navigating confined or small anatomical sites, making them a preferred choice for ophthalmology and neurology.

Are these scissors safe for patients with latex allergies?

Yes, this instrument is not made with natural rubber latex, ensuring it is safe for use in procedures involving patients with latex sensitivities.

What does the CensiTrac marking indicate?

The CensiTrac marking indicates that the instrument is optimized for medical asset management and tracking systems, helping facilities maintain accurate records of usage and sterilization cycles.

Do these scissors arrive ready for immediate surgical use?

These scissors are shipped non-sterile. They must be processed through your facility’s standard cleaning and sterilization protocols before they are used in any surgical procedure.

Is this a TAA-compliant surgical instrument?

Yes, this product is TAA compliant, making it suitable for procurement in government and institutional medical settings that require adherence to Trade Agreements Act standards.

How long is the total length of these scissors?
