7 1/4″ Cooley Occlusion Clamp 3.6cm Long Jaws

The 7 1/4″ Cooley Occlusion Clamp 3.6cm Long Jaws is a specialized cardiovascular surgical instrument designed for controlled vascular occlusion and manipulation during cardiovascular, vascular, and cardiothoracic procedures. Its Cooley-style configuration provides a practical combination of instrument length and jaw dimensions for surgical teams requiring dependable vascular control during selected operative techniques. With an overall length of 7 1/4 inches, this Cooley occlusion clamp provides a compact working profile while maintaining useful reach within the operative field. The 3.6cm long jaws provide a defined working surface for engaging appropriate vascular structures. These dimensions should be considered when selecting instrumentation for a particular procedure, vessel size, and surgical approach. Occlusion clamps are used when temporary control of blood flow through an appropriate vascular structure is required. Depending on the specific surgical technique, an occlusion clamp may assist with vessel isolation, vascular repair, reconstruction, graft-related procedures, or other applications requiring controlled vessel occlusion. The exact clinical application and duration of use should always be determined by the operating surgeon according to the patient’s anatomy and the requirements of the procedure. The 3.6cm long jaws are an important feature of this model. A defined jaw length allows the surgical team to select a clamp that corresponds appropriately with the target vessel and operative requirements. Proper sizing and positioning are essential when working with vascular structures. The instrument should be applied with appropriate surgical technique and should not be used beyond its intended clinical purpose. The Cooley occlusion clamp is designed for controlled mechanical operation. Smooth opening and closing action allows the instrument to be positioned accurately and manipulated according to the surgeon’s technique. Reliable jaw alignment is particularly important in vascular instrumentation, where precise placement and controlled handling are essential. Professional surgical clamps of this type are generally manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel. Stainless steel is commonly selected for reusable surgical instruments because of its strength, durability, corrosion resistance, and compatibility with established cleaning and sterilization processes. Proper instrument care is essential to preserve these characteristics throughout the product’s service life. The 7 1/4″ Cooley Occlusion Clamp can be incorporated into cardiovascular surgical instrument trays, vascular surgery sets, cardiothoracic instrument collections, and specialized operating-room inventories. Its 3.6cm jaw length provides a specific configuration for facilities that require multiple vascular clamps in different sizes and working profiles. After clinical use, the clamp should be processed according to an approved surgical-instrument reprocessing procedure. Prompt cleaning helps prevent biological material from drying on the instrument. Particular attention should be given to the jaws, hinge, and other moving components. The instrument should be thoroughly rinsed and dried after cleaning before inspection. Before sterilization and subsequent use, the clamp should be inspected for correct jaw alignment, smooth mechanical movement, corrosion, surface damage, and structural integrity. Any instrument showing signs of damage or improper function should be removed from service and evaluated by qualified personnel. Sterilization should be carried out according to the manufacturer’s validated instructions and the healthcare facility’s established sterilization protocol. Proper cleaning before sterilization is essential for effective instrument processing. Following sterilization, the clamp should be stored in a suitable environment that protects it from contamination, excessive moisture, and mechanical damage. The 7 1/4″ Cooley Occlusion Clamp 3.6cm Long Jaws offers a practical combination of controlled vascular occlusion, defined jaw dimensions, and durable surgical construction. It is a useful addition to professional cardiovascular, vascular, and cardiothoracic surgical instrument collections where reliable vessel control is required.
