Fogarty Atraumatic Clamp

Fogarty Atraumatic Clamp is a precision vascular instrument commonly used by vascular surgeons, cardiovascular surgeons, and transplant specialists during procedures requiring temporary interruption of blood flow. The instrument is specifically designed to provide secure vascular occlusion while preserving the integrity of the vessel wall. Its atraumatic jaw design distributes clamping pressure evenly across arteries, veins, and vascular grafts, reducing the risk of intimal injury, endothelial damage, and vessel crushing. Featuring elongated jaws with fine, atraumatic serrations, the clamp enables controlled vessel compression and dependable hemostatic control without excessive force. The precision-engineered jaw profile facilitates safe handling of delicate vascular structures during complex reconstructive and endovascular procedures. The ratcheted ring-handle mechanism allows surgeons to adjust and maintain the desired level of clamping pressure according to vessel size and tissue condition. Its ergonomic design and balanced construction provide superior tactile feedback and precise control throughout vascular interventions. Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the Fogarty Atraumatic Clamp offers exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and dependable long-term performance. The satin low-glare finish minimizes reflections under operating room lighting while facilitating efficient cleaning and maintenance. Widely used in hospitals, cardiovascular centers, and transplant facilities, this instrument is an essential component of vascular surgery instrument sets. Fully reusable and autoclavable, the Fogarty Atraumatic Clamp is designed to withstand repeated sterilization cycles while maintaining structural integrity, jaw alignment, and consistent clamping performance. Common Clinical Applications Include: Carotid Endarterectomy Peripheral Vascular Surgery Vascular Bypass Procedures Arterial Reconstruction Aneurysm Repair Vascular Anastomosis Cardiovascular Surgery Vascular Graft Procedures Organ Transplantation Hemostatic Vessel Control Specifications Feature Details Product Name Fogarty Atraumatic Clamp Instrument Type Vascular Clamp Function Temporary Vessel Occlusion Jaw Design Atraumatic Fine-Serrated Jaws Handle Type Ring Handle with Ratchet Lock Application Vascular and Cardiovascular Surgery Material Surgical-Grade Stainless Steel Finish Satin Low-Glare Finish Sterilization Fully Sterilizable and Autoclavable Reusability Reusable Performance Secure Vessel Control with Minimal Tissue Trauma Frequently Asked Questions What is the Fogarty Atraumatic Clamp used for?
