Vascular Instruments
Captions available
The idea
Vascular instruments are designed to handle blood vessels gently and to stop blood flow without injuring the vessel wall.
In practice
Examples include atraumatic vascular clamps that fully occlude vessels during repair, fine angled scissors for opening vessels, and small spring clamps.
Where people slip
These instruments are delicate; their jaws are protected so they keep closing evenly.
