Sellors Rib Approximator & Spreader
The Sellors Rib Approximator & Spreader is a dual-function surgical instrument designed for thoracic procedures, particularly in the closure of thoracotomy incisions. It combines the capability to gently spread ribs for access during surgery and then securely approximate them for precise closure. This instrument helps align the rib ends accurately, facilitating stable sternal wiring or plating and promoting proper post-operative healing of the chest wall. Its robust design and controlled mechanism make it a valuable tool for cardiothoracic and trauma surgeons.
Key Features:
– Dual-function design acts as both a rib spreader and a rib approximator.
– Allows for controlled separation and accurate re-approximation of ribs.
– Facilitates proper alignment for secure sternal closure with wires or plates.
– Constructed from durable surgical stainless steel for reliable performance.
– Helps reduce post-operative pain and complications related to chest wall instability.
– An efficient tool that streamlines the opening and closing phases of thoracic surgery.
Simplify thoracic opening and closure. The Sellors Rib Approximator & Spreader is available from Medic Instrument.
