6 1/2″ Cooley Anastomosis Clamp 30° Modified Side Angle

The 6 1/2″ Cooley Anastomosis Clamp 30° Modified Side Angle is a specialized cardiovascular and vascular surgical instrument designed to assist with controlled vessel positioning, manipulation, and temporary occlusion during selected vascular procedures. With an overall length of 6.5 inches and a 30-degree modified side-angle configuration , this clamp provides a specialized working geometry intended to facilitate directional access in operative fields where a conventional straight approach may be less suitable. The instrument is designed as an anastomosis clamp , making it suitable for consideration in selected procedures involving vascular repair, reconstruction, and anastomotic techniques. During vascular anastomosis, controlled temporary vessel occlusion or positioning can help provide a stable operative field for precise surgical work. The exact indication, placement, and technique should always be determined by a qualified cardiovascular or vascular surgeon. The 30° modified side angle provides an offset working trajectory relative to the primary axis of the instrument. This specialized configuration can allow the working end to approach a vessel from a lateral or angled direction while the handle remains positioned away from the immediate operative site. Such geometry may be advantageous when surrounding anatomy, incision orientation, or the desired line of approach limits direct access. At 6.5 inches overall length , the Cooley Anastomosis Clamp provides useful working reach while retaining practical maneuverability. The length can be advantageous when accessing vessels positioned deeper within the operative field. The modified side-angle design further supports controlled positioning without requiring the entire instrument to be aligned directly with the target vessel. Cooley-pattern cardiovascular instruments are designed around the requirements of delicate vascular and cardiac procedures. This configuration may be incorporated into selected cardiovascular, vascular, thoracic, and reconstructive surgical procedures where temporary vessel control is required. Applications may include vessel positioning, isolation, repair, reconstruction, and selected anastomotic techniques, depending on the specific surgical approach. The specialized geometry of this clamp should be matched to the patient’s anatomy and the requirements of the procedure. Factors such as vessel diameter, location, surgical exposure, and desired direction of approach should be considered when selecting an appropriate clamp. The instrument should not be used simply based on its size or name without confirming its suitability for the intended application. Careful handling is particularly important when working with vascular structures. The working end should be positioned accurately before application, and only the amount of force necessary for the intended clinical purpose should be used. Excessive compression, twisting, bending, or inappropriate leverage should be avoided to help minimize potential vascular tissue trauma and preserve instrument integrity. The instrument is typically manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel , offering strength, durability, and corrosion resistance suitable for professional reusable surgical instrumentation. Precision manufacturing supports dependable working-end alignment and consistent mechanical performance. A smooth surface finish 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 30° modified side-angle working end, hinge, and adjoining surfaces , where blood and biological residue may accumulate. The instrument should be inspected for corrosion, wear, deformation, surface damage, and alignment before sterilization. Sterilization should be performed using a validated method compatible with the manufacturer’s instructions and institutional infection-control requirements. Proper storage and careful handling help preserve the modified side-angle geometry and overall mechanical performance. The 6 1/2″ Cooley Anastomosis Clamp 30° Modified Side Angle combines a useful 6.5-inch working length with a specialized 30° modified side-angle configuration. Its directional geometry and controlled working profile make it a practical addition to professional cardiovascular and vascular surgical instrument sets requiring precise vessel access and temporary vascular control.
