Satinsky Tangential Occlusion Clamp

Satinsky Tangential Occlusion refers to the specialized technique and clamp used for partially occluding a large vessel, like the aorta or vena cava, along a tangential plane. The Satinsky Tangential Occlusion Clamp has a broad, curved jaw that applies pressure to only a portion of the vessel wall, allowing for the creation of an arteriotomy or venotomy while maintaining significant distal blood flow. This is essential for side-to-side vascular anastomoses and procedures like pulmonary thromboendarterectomy.

Key Features:

Broad, curved jaw for partial, tangential occlusion of large vessels.
Allows surgical access to the vessel lumen while preserving significant blood flow.
Atraumatic serrations minimize damage to the vascular intima.
Critical for side-biting anastomoses and procedures on the great vessels.
Provides a secure, controlled field for precise vascular suturing.
A specialized clamp for cardiovascular and thoracic surgeons.
