6 1/4″ Cooley Patent Ductus Clamp Angled Shaft

The 6 1/4″ Cooley Patent Ductus Clamp Angled Shaft is a specialized cardiovascular and thoracic surgical instrument designed to assist with controlled manipulation, positioning, isolation, and temporary occlusion of appropriately sized vascular structures. With an overall length of 6.25 inches and an angled shaft , this clamp provides a specialized working configuration for selected procedures involving the patent ductus and adjacent vascular anatomy. Cooley Patent Ductus clamps are associated with cardiovascular procedures where controlled access to and temporary management of vascular structures is required. The specialized configuration can help provide controlled vessel handling during procedures involving patent ductus-related anatomy, vascular exposure, repair, or closure. The exact clinical indication and surgical technique should always be determined by a qualified cardiovascular or thoracic surgeon. The angled shaft provides an offset working trajectory between the handle and the working end. This geometry can facilitate access when the target vascular structure is positioned at an angle relative to the surgeon’s hand or when a straight instrument approach is less convenient. The angled configuration can therefore support controlled placement within selected thoracic and cardiovascular operative fields. At 6.25 inches overall length , the clamp offers useful working reach while maintaining practical maneuverability. Its moderate length can be beneficial when working within the thoracic operative field, providing access to the target anatomy while allowing controlled instrument handling. The Cooley Patent Ductus Clamp may assist with temporary vessel occlusion, vessel positioning, isolation, manipulation, repair, or related cardiovascular procedures . Its specialized design can be incorporated into cardiovascular and thoracic surgical instrument sets where controlled vascular access is required. Proper instrument selection is important when working around major vascular structures. The target vessel dimensions, anatomical location, surgical exposure, and specific procedural requirements should be considered before selecting the clamp. The working configuration should be verified against the manufacturer’s technical specifications before clinical use. Controlled application is essential when working with vascular tissue. The working end should be positioned accurately 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 vascular 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 working-end alignment and reliable mechanical performance. A smooth surface finish 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 working jaws, angled shaft, hinge, and adjoining surfaces , where blood and biological residue may accumulate. The instrument should be inspected for corrosion, wear, deformation, surface damage, and proper alignment 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 angled shaft geometry and overall mechanical performance. The 6 1/4″ Cooley Patent Ductus Clamp Angled Shaft combines a 6.25-inch overall length with a specialized angled shaft for controlled access to selected cardiovascular anatomy. Its focused design, practical reach, and durable construction make it a useful addition to professional cardiovascular and thoracic surgical instrument sets.
