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, sharp/sharp tips and a length of 4-1/2 inches.

Frequently asked questions

Are these scissors suitable for delicate tissue dissection?

Yes, these Stevens Tenotomy Scissors are specifically engineered for fine and delicate tissue dissection. Their sharp/sharp tips and smooth working edges make them ideal for high-precision tasks required in:

Can these scissors be used in confined surgical spaces?

Absolutely. The instrument features long handles and a curved profile, which provide surgeons with the necessary reach and leverage to maneuver accurately within narrow or confined anatomical spaces.

What type of stainless steel is used for this instrument?

The scissors are manufactured from high-grade, durable stainless steel designed for repeated surgical use and professional sterilization cycles, ensuring long-term reliability in clinical environments.

Does this instrument meet institutional safety standards?

Yes, the product is TAA Compliant and strictly not made with natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice for facilities with latex-sensitive patient populations and strict procurement requirements.

Are these scissors ready for immediate use upon arrival?

These instruments are supplied non-sterile. Before use in any surgical procedure, they must undergo the appropriate sterilization process according to your facility’s protocols for reusable surgical instrumentation.

How do I identify these as CensiTrac-marked instruments?

Each pair of these scissors includes the CensiTrac marking, allowing for seamless integration into inventory tracking systems for enhanced asset management, maintenance monitoring, and sterilization logging.

Is the ergonomic design helpful for long procedures?

The inclusion of ergonomic finger rings coupled with the extended shank design helps reduce hand fatigue by providing a secure and comfortable grip, which is essential for maintaining control during lengthy or intricate surgeries.

Are these scissors intended for one-time use?

No, these are categorized as reusable surgical instruments. They are built to withstand the rigors of repeated sterilization and surgical use, providing lasting value over single-use alternatives.

What is the primary benefit of the sharp/sharp tip configuration?

The sharp/sharp tip configuration allows for precise, direct cutting of tissues. This is specifically preferred for procedures where sharp dissection is required and where the blunt dissection provided by rounded tips would be insufficient.

Is this model suitable for ophthalmic surgery?

Yes, the precision of the 4-1/2 inch length and the curved geometry make them exceptionally well-suited for specialized fields like ophthalmology, neurology, and fine plastic surgery where accuracy is critical.
