6 3/4″ Dale Fem-Pop Clamp Small

The 6 3/4″ Dale Fem-Pop Clamp Small is a specialized vascular surgical instrument designed to assist with controlled handling, positioning, isolation, and temporary occlusion of appropriately sized vascular structures. Measuring 6.75 inches overall, this clamp features a small working configuration intended for selected procedures involving femoral and popliteal vascular anatomy. The Dale Fem-Pop Clamp is designed for vascular surgery where controlled access to peripheral vessels is required. Its specialized pattern can assist with vessel manipulation and temporary vascular control during procedures involving the femoral and popliteal regions. The exact clinical application should always be determined by a qualified vascular surgeon based on patient anatomy and procedural requirements. The small configuration provides a more focused working profile for appropriately sized vessels. Selecting the correct clamp size is particularly important in peripheral vascular surgery, where vessel diameter and anatomical location can vary. The working dimensions should be matched to the target anatomy and verified against the manufacturer’s technical specifications before clinical use. At 6 3/4 inches overall length , the instrument provides useful working reach while retaining practical maneuverability. This length can help facilitate controlled access to peripheral vascular structures without introducing unnecessary instrument bulk into the operative field. The Dale Fem-Pop Clamp may assist with temporary vessel occlusion, vessel isolation, positioning, manipulation, vascular repair, and reconstruction during selected procedures. It can be incorporated into vascular surgical instrument sets where specialized peripheral vessel control is required. Proper instrument selection is essential when working with blood vessels. The surgeon should consider vessel diameter, anatomical location, tissue characteristics, surgical exposure, and the intended technique before selecting the clamp. The small configuration should be used only where its working dimensions are appropriate for the target vascular structure. Controlled application is important to help minimize potential vascular tissue trauma. 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. The specialized design can provide controlled access to selected femoral and popliteal vascular structures while allowing the surgeon to maintain practical hand positioning. Its moderate overall length provides a balance between reach and maneuverability in peripheral vascular operative fields. The instrument is typically manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel , providing mechanical strength, durability, and corrosion resistance suitable for professional reusable surgical instrumentation. Precision manufacturing supports reliable working-end alignment and consistent 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 end, hinge, and adjoining surfaces , where blood and biological residue may accumulate. The clamp 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 handling and storage help maintain the working configuration and mechanical performance. The 6 3/4″ Dale Fem-Pop Clamp Small combines a 6.75-inch overall length with a specialized small configuration for controlled peripheral vascular handling. Its focused working profile, practical reach, and durable construction make it a useful addition to professional vascular surgical instrument sets.
