Frequently asked questions
Are these scissors made with durable, high-quality materials?
Yes. These scissors are forged from high-quality Japanese steel and feature tungsten carbide inserts. This combination is specifically chosen to ensure superior cutting performance and long-term durability during surgical use.
Is this instrument safe for delicate tissue dissection?
Absolutely. The scissors feature a blunt/blunt tip configuration, which is specifically engineered to allow for safe, non-traumatic dissection and separation of soft tissues.
Can I use these scissors to cut sutures?
No, these are specialized tissue-dissecting scissors. They are not intended for cutting abrasive materials such as sutures or drains, as doing so may damage the precise cutting edges.
Are these scissors suitable for repeated clinical use?
Yes, these are professional-grade, reusable surgical instruments. They are designed for repeated use, provided they are subjected to proper cleaning and sterilization protocols between procedures.
What is the benefit of the Surgi-OR mid-grade line?
The Surgi-OR line offers a cost-effective solution that does not compromise on Sklar’s rigorous quality standards. It provides surgical centers with reliable, high-performance instrumentation at a more accessible price point.
Are these scissors free from natural rubber latex?
Yes, this product is not made with natural rubber latex, making it safe for use in environments where latex sensitivities are a concern.
How should I handle these scissors during surgery?
They feature an ergonomic design with standard finger rings to provide a comfortable and secure grip. The curved-on-flat geometry is specifically designed to facilitate precise maneuvering in surgical fields.
How are these scissors different from standard Metzenbaum scissors?
These Metzenbaum-Lahey scissors are notably shorter (5-3/4 inches) than standard Metzenbaum scissors. This compact size makes them ideal for specialized, delicate procedures that require a smaller, more maneuverable instrument.
Are these provided as sterile instruments?
These scissors are supplied non-sterile. They must be properly reprocessed according to your facility’s protocols before being used in a sterile surgical environment.
Is there a guarantee on the quality of these scissors?
Yes, these scissors are backed by a Lifetime warranty, reflecting the manufacturer’s confidence in the craftsmanship and the durability of the high-quality steel and tungsten carbide construction.
