8" Cooley Patent Ductus Clamp straight shanks

Controlled Clamping for Cardiovascular and General Surgical Workflows

The 8" Cooley Patent Ductus Clamp straight shanks is a surgical clamp designed for controlled handling and temporary occlusion of tissue or vessel structures during operative work. Its straight configuration supports a direct instrument path and clear alignment at the working site, while the atraumatic jaw pattern is suited to careful tissue handling. In cardiovascular procedures, it supports focused manipulation around ductus-related anatomy; in general surgery, it provides a familiar clamping format for applicable soft-tissue and vessel-handling tasks. The 8-inch overall length adds working reach while maintaining a straightforward profile for positioning and instrument control.

Use Cases

• Support controlled clamping and manipulation during cardiovascular procedures involving ductus-related anatomy.
• Assist with vessel-handling tasks where an atraumatic jaw pattern is appropriate.
• Provide a straight-shank clamp format for general surgical tissue-handling workflows.
• Use the 8-inch profile when additional working reach is useful at the operative site.
• Apply in workflows requiring direct alignment and practical visualization of the instrument jaws.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the clamp according to facility procedures and the applicable manufacturer instructions for use.
• Inspect the atraumatic jaws, straight shanks, and operating mechanism for visible soil, damage, or irregular movement before use.
• Handle the jaws carefully during cleaning, transport, and setup to preserve their working surfaces.
• Store the instrument in a manner that protects the jaws and prevents unnecessary contact with other instruments.

General use; follow facility protocols.
