6 1/2″ Reynolds Vascular Clamp DeBakey Teeth 85° Angled Small

The 6 1/2″ Reynolds Vascular Clamp DeBakey Teeth 85° Angled Small is a specialized cardiovascular and vascular surgical instrument designed to assist with controlled vessel manipulation, positioning, isolation, and temporary occlusion. Measuring 6.5 inches overall, this clamp features a small working configuration, 85° angulation, and DeBakey-style teeth , providing a specialized working profile for selected vascular procedures. The Reynolds Vascular Clamp is intended for situations where precise control of appropriately sized vascular structures is required. Vascular clamps are commonly used to provide temporary control of blood flow, stabilize a vessel, and facilitate surgical access during selected vascular repair, reconstruction, or anastomotic procedures. The exact clinical indication should always be determined by a qualified vascular or cardiovascular surgeon. The 85° angled configuration provides a pronounced offset between the instrument shaft and working end. This geometry can allow the surgical team to approach the target vessel from a substantially angled direction, which may be useful in operative fields where a direct approach is restricted by surrounding anatomy or other surgical structures. The small configuration provides a focused working profile for appropriately sized vessels. Selecting the correct jaw size is important for achieving suitable instrument-to-vessel compatibility. Vessel diameter, anatomical location, operative exposure, and the specific surgical technique should all be considered when selecting the appropriate vascular clamp. The DeBakey-style teeth provide a fine, atraumatic-oriented textured working surface designed to support controlled engagement and positioning of vascular tissue. Such serrations are intended to provide grip while allowing careful handling when the clamp is applied using appropriate surgical technique. The exact tooth pattern and dimensions should be verified against the manufacturer’s specifications. At 6.5 inches overall length , the instrument provides useful reach while maintaining practical maneuverability. Its combination of moderate length, small working profile, and pronounced 85° angulation can be useful when controlled access to a selected vascular structure is required. The clamp may be incorporated into cardiovascular, peripheral vascular, thoracic, and reconstructive surgical instrument sets . Depending on the procedure, applications may include vessel isolation, temporary occlusion, positioning, manipulation, vascular repair, reconstruction, and anastomosis. Controlled application is particularly important when working with vascular tissue. The DeBakey-toothed jaws should be accurately positioned before application, and only the force necessary for the intended clinical purpose should be used. Excessive compression, twisting, bending, or inappropriate leverage should be avoided to help minimize potential tissue trauma and preserve instrument integrity. The instrument is typically manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel , providing mechanical strength, durability, and corrosion resistance appropriate for professional reusable surgical instrumentation. Precision manufacturing supports consistent jaw alignment and mechanical performance. The smooth surface also facilitates routine cleaning, inspection, and maintenance. After use, reusable instruments should be promptly cleaned and decontaminated according to established healthcare-facility procedures. Particular attention should be given to the DeBakey teeth, angled working end, hinge, and adjoining surfaces , where blood and biological residue may accumulate. The instrument should be inspected for damaged teeth, corrosion, wear, deformation, or misalignment before sterilization. Sterilization should be performed using a validated process compatible with the manufacturer’s instructions and institutional infection-control requirements. Proper storage and careful handling help preserve the fine-toothed working surface, 85° geometry, and overall mechanical performance. The 6 1/2″ Reynolds Vascular Clamp DeBakey Teeth 85° Angled Small combines a compact small-jaw profile with pronounced 85° angulation and a DeBakey-toothed working surface. Its specialized configuration and durable construction make it a practical addition to professional vascular and cardiovascular surgical instrument sets.
