7 1/4″ Dale Improved Fem Pop Anastomosis Clamp

The 7 1/4″ Dale Improved Fem Pop Anastomosis Clamp is a specialized vascular surgical instrument designed for controlled handling of appropriately sized peripheral blood vessels during selected vascular procedures. With an overall length of 7.25 inches , this clamp provides useful reach and maneuverability for procedures involving femoral and popliteal vascular anatomy. The Dale Improved Fem-Pop Anastomosis Clamp is designed to support vascular surgeons during procedures where temporary vessel control, positioning, isolation, and manipulation are required. Its specialized pattern is particularly associated with selected femoral-popliteal vascular procedures and vascular anastomotic techniques . The precise clinical application should always be determined by a qualified vascular surgeon based on the patient’s anatomy and operative requirements. The Fem-Pop configuration is intended for selected peripheral vascular anatomy involving the femoral and popliteal regions. During vascular reconstruction or anastomotic procedures, controlled vessel management is essential for maintaining appropriate access to the operative field. This clamp can assist with positioning and temporarily controlling the selected vessel when its working dimensions are appropriate. At 7 1/4 inches overall length , the instrument provides extended working reach while retaining practical maneuverability. The length can help provide access to peripheral vascular structures while keeping the surgeon’s hand at a useful distance from the operative site. The term Improved in the instrument name identifies a particular pattern or design configuration. Because manufacturers may vary in their exact dimensions and jaw geometry, the working-end specifications should be verified against the applicable manufacturer’s documentation before clinical use. The clamp may be incorporated into professional vascular, cardiovascular, peripheral vascular, and reconstructive surgical instrument sets . Potential applications include temporary vessel occlusion, vessel isolation, positioning, manipulation, and assistance during selected vascular anastomotic procedures. Proper instrument selection is especially important when working with peripheral vascular structures. Vessel diameter, anatomical location, tissue characteristics, operative exposure, and the intended surgical technique should be considered before selecting the instrument. The clamp should be used only when its working profile is appropriate for the target vessel. Controlled application is essential when handling vascular tissue. The working end should be accurately positioned 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 tissue trauma. The 7.25-inch length provides a useful combination of reach and control for selected peripheral vascular operative fields. This can be advantageous when the target vessel is located within a deeper or less directly accessible surgical field. The instrument is typically manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel , providing strength, durability, and corrosion resistance suitable for professional reusable surgical instrumentation. Precision manufacturing helps maintain proper alignment and reliable mechanical operation. A smooth 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, hinge, shaft, 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 preserve the working-end geometry and mechanical performance. The 7 1/4″ Dale Improved Fem-Pop Anastomosis Clamp combines a specialized peripheral vascular configuration with a 7.25-inch overall length for controlled vessel handling during selected femoral-popliteal and vascular anastomotic procedures. Its useful reach, specialized pattern, and durable construction make it a practical addition to professional vascular surgical instrument sets.
