This is a surgical instrument that is used in neurosurgery to expose the required tissues under incision. The instrument usually possesses 7 by 7 prongs at one end and comfortable handles at the other end. The products are used to hold the tissues under incision for proper view by the surgeon. The existence of the prongs at one end helps in the firm grip of the tissues such that they do not come back together during incision. This is actually a quality standard like the one possessed by the Beck-mann retractors manufactured by Blacksmith company. The company produces these products from the designs that are produced by their own engineers within the company who specialize in production of the highest quality in order to offer efficiency in the process of surgery.
This instrument is used together with other instruments that are used in the process of surgery to make it a success. During the operation process, the instrument can be handheld by the surgeon or be held in place using a robotic arm while the surgeon concentrates on viewing the required part that is under incision. With the help of this equipment the surgeons push apart the tissues and organs of the body such that the parts required are exposed for observation. Such retractors are usually fitted with suction to enable the surgical wound remain dry during the operation process for clear viewing by the surgeons.
The prongs of these instruments act as hooks to hold firmly the tissues that need to be kept apart such that the surgeons have a clear view on the wounds. As a recommendation for the standards of the tools, they must be made from stainless steel material to avoid rusting of the instrument. The engineers in Blacksmith have got a variety of designs for you but still they can offer to manufacture a retractor according to your specifications provided that the specifications meet the recommended standards.
