Cushing scalp Retractor
The Cushing Scalp Retractor is a specialized surgical instrument used primarily in neurosurgery to retract the scalp and expose the underlying tissues during cranial procedures. Its precision design allows for effective retraction with minimal tissue trauma, offering excellent visibility and access to the surgical site.
Specifications:
- Material: High-grade stainless steel for strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion
- Design: Lightweight, ergonomic handle with a curved blade that gently holds back the scalp without causing damage
- Blade Shape: Fine, slightly curved blade for atraumatic retraction of soft tissues
- Size: Typically available in 120mm, 150mm, and 200mm (4.5″, 6″, and 8″) lengths to accommodate different surgical needs
- Handle Type: Smooth or ribbed handle for secure grip, offering comfort and control during long procedures
- Autoclavable: Fully autoclavable for efficient sterilization and reuse in sterile environments
- Weight: Lightweight for ease of handling and reduced hand fatigue during prolonged use
The Cushing Scalp Retractor is trusted by neurosurgeons for its ability to provide clear exposure of the cranium and underlying structures. It is ideal for scalp incision retraction during brain surgery, allowing for efficient and precise dissection while minimizing patient tissue damage.
