7″ Hoen Periosteal Elevator – #1 (5/16″ Wide)

The 7″ Hoen Periosteal Elevator – #1 (5/16″ Wide) is a finely crafted orthopedic surgical instrument used for the precise elevation of periosteum from bone surfaces during a wide range of surgical procedures. Designed for delicate yet controlled tissue handling, this instrument is essential in orthopedic, trauma, and reconstructive surgeries where accuracy and minimal tissue disruption are critical. This periosteal elevator is specifically engineered to separate the periosteum—the thin layer of connective tissue covering bones—from the underlying cortical bone. The #1 narrow blade measuring 5/16″ allows surgeons to perform highly precise dissections, particularly in areas requiring careful tissue preservation. Its slim profile makes it ideal for working in tight anatomical spaces where larger instruments cannot be effectively used. With an overall length of 7 inches , the Hoen Periosteal Elevator provides excellent control and maneuverability. The compact design ensures that surgeons can apply steady pressure while maintaining optimal tactile feedback during delicate elevation procedures. This balance of length and precision enhances surgical accuracy and reduces the risk of tissue damage. The instrument is manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel , ensuring long-term durability, corrosion resistance, and consistent performance under repeated sterilization cycles. Its robust construction allows it to maintain structural integrity even after extensive use in demanding surgical environments. The finely polished surface of the 7″ Hoen Periosteal Elevator minimizes friction during tissue dissection and ensures smooth gliding along bone surfaces. This not only improves surgical efficiency but also reduces trauma to surrounding tissues. The high-quality finish also facilitates easy cleaning and effective sterilization, supporting strict infection control standards in operating rooms. This instrument is fully autoclavable and reusable , making it suitable for long-term use in hospitals, surgical centers, and orthopedic clinics. It is designed to withstand repeated high-temperature sterilization cycles without compromising performance or structural strength. The Hoen Periosteal Elevator is widely used in procedures such as fracture repair, bone grafting, implant site preparation, and reconstructive surgeries. Its precision blade allows surgeons to carefully elevate periosteum while preserving underlying bone integrity, which is essential for optimal healing and surgical outcomes. Surgeons prefer this instrument for its ergonomic handling, fine control, and reliable performance in delicate surgical environments. The slim 5/16″ blade ensures accuracy, while the balanced 7″ design provides stability and ease of use during intricate procedures. Overall, the 7″ Hoen Periosteal Elevator – #1 (5/16″ Wide) is an indispensable tool in orthopedic surgical instrument sets, offering precision, durability, and superior handling for controlled periosteal elevation.
