Favaloro rib spreader

The Favaloro Rib Spreader is a specialized thoracic retractor designed to provide stable, atraumatic exposure of the heart and mediastinum during cardiac surgery, particularly coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Its broad, gently curved blades distribute retraction force evenly along the ribs, minimizing the risk of fracture. The self-retaining, ratcheted mechanism allows for controlled, gradual opening and secure locking, freeing the surgical team’s hands and providing optimal, consistent access for intricate cardiac procedures.

Key Features:

• Broad, curved blades for atraumatic, even distribution of rib retraction force.

• Self-retaining ratchet mechanism provides stable, hands-free exposure.

• Essential for optimal access to the mediastinum for internal mammary artery harvest and cardiac anastomoses.

• Reduces post-operative pain and the risk of rib fractures compared to older designs.

• Robust construction ensures reliability during lengthy open-heart surgeries.

• A cornerstone instrument in modern cardiac surgical suites.
