support for flat brain spatulas Fixation Base is a made to be used with additional surgical instrumentation. This base is ideally suited for supporting of flat brain spatulas that can be affixed across it. This apparatus is particularly useful in neurosurgical procedures and is highly versatile and used to accommodate patient variation and surgeon preference.
Fixation Base – Support For Round Handle Brain Spatulas
support for brain spatulas w/ round handle (also for hand instruments w/ round handle)Â Fixation Base is an additional component that is made for use with other instrumentation in neurosurgical procedures. This particular base allows for anchoring and stable hold of brain spatulas. It is specifically designed to support brain spatulas with round handles. Additionally it can also be used to support other hand instrument that feature round handles.
Flat Nose K-Wire Pliers
serrated jaws, 7" (17.8 cm), 3.0 mm tip Flat Nose K-Wire Pliers are instruments ideally suited for use with surgical K-wire. This wire can be used for temporary fixation in some procedures thus giving support through the healing process and then can be removed. Additionally K-wire can be used in permanent fixation and can also be passed through the skin and bone to provide direct traction to the bone itself. In all of this surgical scenarios this instrument will be of optimal function in manipulation and handling of the wire and features serrated jaws which gives added hold and grip to prevent slipping. This instrument is available with or without a grooved jaw.
Flat Nose Pliers
serrated jaws, 5-1/2" (14.0 cm)Â Flat Nose Pliers are ideally suited for use in manipulation of wire. Particularly these pliers can be used in situations where it is required to make very sharp, angled bends in the wire. The wider tip makes this instrument ideal for grasping Steinmann pins and K-wires. Additionally this instrument measure 5.5" long and is forged from premium German grade steel making it a finely crafted and reliable instrument.
