Frequently Asked Questions
What are DeBakey forceps used for?
DeBakey forceps have atraumatic jaws designed to grasp blood vessels and delicate tissue without crushing them, making them standard in cardiovascular surgery.
What is a vascular clamp?
A vascular clamp temporarily occludes a blood vessel during surgery. Atraumatic jaw patterns such as DeBakey teeth hold the vessel securely while protecting its wall.
Which needle holders are used in cardiac surgery?
Fine needle holders such as Castroviejo, Ryder and DeBakey patterns are used for the small sutures in cardiac and vascular anastomoses.
