10 3/4″ Cooley Cardio Clamp 2 3/4″ Jaw

The 10 3/4″ Cooley Cardio Clamp 2 3/4″ Jaw is a specialized cardiovascular surgical instrument designed for controlled manipulation, clamping, and temporary occlusion of vascular structures during demanding cardiac and cardiothoracic procedures. Its extended 10¾-inch length provides the reach required for deep operative fields, while the 2¾-inch jaw offers a substantial working surface for controlled engagement of the intended anatomical structure. Cooley cardiovascular clamps are designed for use in procedures where reliable vascular control and precise instrument positioning are essential. This Cooley Cardio Clamp may be incorporated into cardiovascular and thoracic surgical instrument sets for procedures involving major vessels and other anatomical structures where temporary clamping is required. The appropriate clamp selection depends on the vessel, surgical approach, anatomy, and technique used by the operating surgeon. The 2¾-inch jaw provides an extended working area that can facilitate access to larger vascular structures. A longer jaw can be particularly useful when a broader area of controlled engagement is needed. The working end is designed to provide the surgeon with a stable point of contact while the long shaft allows manipulation from outside the deeper operative field. At 10¾ inches overall length , this clamp offers useful reach during open cardiac and cardiothoracic procedures. The extended shaft can help improve access when the target structure is positioned deep within the thoracic cavity or cardiovascular surgical field. It also allows the surgeon to maintain a more practical hand position while manipulating the clamp. The instrument is typically manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel , providing strength, corrosion resistance, and durability suitable for reusable professional surgical instrumentation. Precision manufacturing supports accurate jaw alignment and dependable mechanical performance, while a smooth finish facilitates routine cleaning and inspection. The Cooley Cardio Clamp 2¾″ Jaw can be used as part of specialized cardiovascular, cardiothoracic, thoracic, and vascular instrument collections. Its applications may include procedures requiring temporary control or manipulation of major vascular structures. As with all vascular clamps, the instrument should be applied using appropriate surgical technique and only when clinically indicated. Proper care is essential to preserve the function and longevity of the clamp. Following use, reusable instruments should be cleaned and decontaminated according to established healthcare-facility procedures. The jaws, hinge, working surfaces, and shaft should be inspected for debris, corrosion, wear, damage, or alignment issues. Sterilization should be performed using a validated method consistent with the manufacturer’s instructions and institutional protocols. Combining a 10¾-inch extended profile with a 2¾-inch jaw , the Cooley Cardio Clamp offers a practical solution for cardiovascular procedures requiring extended reach and controlled vascular handling. Its specialized design and durable stainless-steel construction make it a valuable addition to professional cardiac and vascular surgical instrument sets.
