Product Overview

ATRAUMATA® Monopolar Dissecting Forceps are reusable electrosurgical instruments designed for monopolar applications. This model features a straight configuration, an atraumatic De Bakey-toothed jaw profile, a 2.10 mm jaw width, and an overall length of 240 mm (9 1/2″).

The combination of elongated geometry, a defined jaw width, and insulated construction helps distinguish this instrument from shorter forceps and models with different jaw profiles. These specifications support accurate product identification when comparing surgical instruments for procurement.

Design and Application

The forceps feature straight geometry and De Bakey-style jaw toothing. This jaw profile distinguishes the instrument from forceps with smooth jaws or alternative serration patterns. The specified 2.10 mm jaw width provides a precise measurement for product selection.

The atraumatic designation identifies the intended tissue-handling design. Suitability depends on the procedure, tissue requirements, and the clinician’s judgment.

With an overall length of 240 mm (9 1/2″), this model provides a longer format than shorter versions of the same instrument type. Its insulated construction is intended for compatible monopolar electrosurgical equipment. Confirm equipment requirements and inspect the insulation according to the manufacturer’s instructions before use.

The listed applications include general and visceral surgery, urology, gynaecology, plastic surgery, and orthopaedics / traumatology. Selection should be based on the intended procedure and the requirements of the surgical team.

Tungsten carbide is specified as absent, so this instrument should not be described as having tungsten carbide inserts or components.

Handling and Care

These forceps are reusable and supplied non-sterile. Before initial use and after each subsequent use, clean, inspect, and sterilize the instrument according to the manufacturer’s instructions and validated healthcare-facility procedures.

Inspect the jaws, joint, and insulation before use. Check jaw alignment and movement, and remove the instrument from service if damage, impaired function, or insulation defects are identified. Follow the manufacturer’s approved procedures for cleaning, maintenance, and sterilization.
