Range at AzeeMed
Cutting Medical Tools
Scalpel Handles & Blades: Mostly, during general surgeries, scalpel handles #3 and #4 work well. As far as the blades are concerned, usually surgeons require #15, #10, and #11.
Metzenbaum Scissors: Every day, delicate tissues and muscles can be notched and cut with the help of these long-handled scissors.
Mayo Scissors: Mostly, surgeons use Mayo scissors and their various configurations for cutting tough tissues, like fascia.
Holding Instruments
Adson Forceps: During closure of the surgical wound, practitioners require toothed-tipped Adson forceps. We offer many styles in this category.
Babcock Forceps: Ideally, Babcock forceps must be present on site for grabbing delicate tissues and organs. Therefore, we put extra effort into perfecting the shape and alignment of this significant tool.
DeBakey Forceps: These are mostly used to grasp blood vessels. These forceps atraumtically handle and manipulate the said anatomical structures.
Occluding Instruments
Mosquito Hemostat: Mostly, surgeons prefer using small clamps like the mosquito hemostat for manipulating the fine vessels. We offer a range in this category.
Kocher Clamp: Typically, tough tissues can be manipulated with the help of a Kocher clamp.
Kelly Clamp: When it comes to keeping a versatile holding tool, the Kelly clamp works wonders.
Retracting Instruments
Weitlaner Retractor: This premium tool works wonders to keep the surgical site open at all times. A major plus point lies in its ability to keep the wound open without any need for active manipulation.
Deaver Retractor: Deep abdominal tissues can be manipulated with the help of a Deaver retractor. You can find a vast range available at our store.
Army-Navy Retractor: The shallow incisions can be retracted with the help of an Army-Navy retractor.
Suturing Instruments
Mayo-Hegar Needle Holder: To keep the needles in place, we offer the robust Mayo-Hegar needle holder. It has a cross-hatched jaw, which stops the needle from rotating.
Surgical Stapler: Mostly, surgeons prefer using a surgical stapler to close the wounds during bowel resections.
Aspiration Instruments
Yankauer Suction Tip: Whether the wound is superficial or deep, the Yankauer suction tip works just fine for clearing the wound of any debris.
