9 1/2″ Debakey Multi-Purpose Clamp Ang 60° 70mm Jaw

The 9 1/2″ Debakey Multi-Purpose Clamp Ang 60° 70mm Jaw is a specialized cardiovascular and vascular surgical instrument designed for controlled clamping, temporary occlusion, and manipulation of major blood vessels. Combining a 9 1/2-inch overall length , 60° angled working end , and 70 mm jaw , this DeBakey-style clamp provides a specialized configuration for procedures where extended reach and angled vascular access are important. The 60° angled design allows the working end to approach the target vessel from an oblique orientation rather than directly along the shaft. This geometry can be advantageous when surrounding anatomical structures limit access or when the surgeon requires the handles to remain in a practical position while directing the jaws toward the intended vascular structure. The angled configuration supports controlled positioning in appropriately selected cardiovascular and vascular procedures. With an overall length of 9 1/2 inches , the instrument offers extended working reach. This can be useful when operating within deeper or restricted surgical fields where a shorter clamp may provide insufficient access. The length also allows the surgeon to maintain a controlled hand position while the angled working end is positioned around the vessel. The 70 mm jaw provides a substantial working surface for engaging the intended vascular structure. Jaw length is an important selection consideration for vascular clamps because the working area should correspond to the anatomy and surgical technique. The extended 70 mm jaw provides broad engagement characteristics and may be useful for selected applications involving larger vascular structures. The multi-purpose configuration allows the instrument to serve various controlled vascular handling requirements. Depending on the specific procedure and surgeon preference, a clamp of this type may assist with temporary vascular occlusion, vessel manipulation, positioning, or surgical exposure . It may be incorporated into cardiovascular, vascular, and thoracic surgical instrument sets. The exact clinical application should always be determined by a qualified surgeon according to the patient’s anatomy and operative requirements. The DeBakey-style design is associated with specialized vascular instrumentation intended for controlled handling of blood vessels. The 60° angle can provide useful access around adjacent anatomy and help optimize the orientation of the working end. Proper jaw alignment and smooth mechanical movement are essential for predictable placement and removal. Professional reusable vascular clamps are commonly manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel , providing strength, durability, and corrosion resistance when properly maintained. Precision construction helps preserve the instrument’s jaw geometry and mechanical performance through repeated use. Regular inspection is important, particularly for the working jaws and hinge. After each procedure, the 9 1/2″ DeBakey Multi-Purpose Clamp should be cleaned promptly according to the manufacturer’s validated instructions and the healthcare facility’s approved instrument-processing protocol. Biological material should be thoroughly removed from the jaw surfaces, hinge, and other accessible areas. The instrument should then be rinsed, dried, inspected, and sterilized using a validated process compatible with the instrument. Before reuse, trained personnel should inspect the clamp for jaw alignment, smooth opening and closing, corrosion, surface damage, and structural integrity . Any instrument showing deformation, excessive wear, or impaired function should be removed from service and evaluated according to institutional procedures. The 9 1/2″ DeBakey Multi-Purpose Clamp Ang 60° 70mm Jaw provides a specialized combination of extended reach, a 60° angled working end, and a 70 mm jaw. It is a practical addition to professional DeBakey vascular clamps, cardiovascular surgical instruments, vascular surgery clamps, and specialized operating-room instrument sets .
