Garrett Vascular Dilator

## Overview

The Garrett Vascular Dilator is a Garrett vascular dilator used to dilate the vessel lumen during vascular and microvascular procedures. It carries the Garrett pattern, a named instrument pattern within the dilators range. This listing represents the complete Garrett Vascular Dilator product family, offered as a configurable range of variations that share a common design and differ in defined, printed characteristics. It is classified under Dilators › Vascular Dilator and is intended for use by trained surgical and clinical personnel. All specifications below are taken directly from the manufacturer catalog; characteristics that are not stated in the catalog are omitted rather than assumed.

## Instrument Class and Clinical Role

Vascular dilators are used to gently open the lumen of a blood vessel during vascular and microvascular procedures, for example to prepare a vessel end prior to anastomosis. The instrument is introduced into the lumen to dilate it without injuring the vessel wall. Instruments of this class are defined by very fine tip diameters and by their length and tip geometry.

## Pattern and Identification

This instrument is supplied in the Garrett pattern. Within a surgical inventory, the pattern name together with the Aesculap catalog reference number uniquely identifies the item, which supports accurate reordering and standardisation across a department. Every variation in this family is listed with its own catalog reference so that a specific configuration can be ordered without ambiguity.

## Design and Configuration

Available length options are 140 mm and 215 mm. The available lengths allow the instrument to be matched to the working depth of the operative field. Available diameter options are 1 mm, 1.5 mm, 2 mm, 2.5 mm, 3 mm, 3.5 mm, 4 mm, 4.5 mm, and 5 mm. The range of diameters corresponds to the degree of dilation or the calibre required, allowing the instrument to be matched to the anatomy. All items in this listing share a yes construction.

## Configuration Options

This is a configurable (variable) product. A specific item is selected by choosing from the available length and diameter options listed above; the family comprises 17 variations in total. The individual configurations are: Garrett Vascular Dilator, 140 mm, Ø 1 mm (reference MB246); Garrett Vascular Dilator, 140 mm, Ø 1.5 mm (reference MB247); Garrett Vascular Dilator, 140 mm, Ø 2 mm (reference MB248); Garrett Vascular Dilator, 140 mm, Ø 2.5 mm (reference MB249); Garrett Vascular Dilator, 140 mm, Ø 3 mm (reference MB250); Garrett Vascular Dilator, 140 mm, Ø 3.5 mm (reference MB251); Garrett Vascular Dilator, 140 mm, Ø 4 mm (reference MB252); Garrett Vascular Dilator, 140 mm, Ø 4.5 mm (reference MB253); Garrett Vascular Dilator, 140 mm, Ø 5 mm (reference MB254); Garrett Vascular Dilator, 215 mm, Ø 1 mm (reference MB257); Garrett Vascular Dilator, 215 mm, Ø 1.5 mm (reference MB258); Garrett Vascular Dilator, 215 mm, Ø 2 mm (reference MB259); Garrett Vascular Dilator, 215 mm, Ø 2.5 mm (reference MB260); Garrett Vascular Dilator, 215 mm, Ø 3.5 mm (reference MB262); Garrett Vascular Dilator, 215 mm, Ø 4 mm (reference MB263); Garrett Vascular Dilator, 215 mm, Ø 4.5 mm (reference MB264); Garrett Vascular Dilator, 215 mm, Ø 5 mm (reference MB265). Each configuration maps to a unique Aesculap catalog reference so that the exact item can be ordered without ambiguity.

## Applications

Consistent with its design as a Garrett vascular dilator used to dilate the vessel lumen during vascular and microvascular procedures, the Garrett Vascular Dilator is applied in vascular and microvascular procedures. The scope described here is limited to the definitional function of the instrument class; the specific procedures, techniques and patient selection for which the instrument is appropriate are a matter of clinical judgement and institutional protocol and should be determined by the operating clinician. No performance, outcome or suitability claims are made beyond the instrument’s stated design.

## Material, Finish and Reprocessing

The manufacturer catalog data underlying this listing does not state the material, surface finish or reprocessing parameters for the item, and these are therefore not asserted here. Confirm material specifications, compatibility and validated reprocessing instructions with the supplier or manufacturer documentation before purchase or use.

## Procurement and Standardisation

Because every item is identified by a stable Aesculap catalog reference number, this listing supports consistent reordering and inventory standardisation across an operating department. Recording the pattern name together with the reference number allows procurement teams to match replacement stock to instruments already in service and to compare like-for-like items between suppliers. Availability, minimum order requirements and lead times are confirmed on inquiry.

## Ordering and Procurement

This product is available in multiple configurations; refer to the individual variations for exact specifications and catalog reference numbers. Pricing is not published on this platform, which operates on an inquiry (request-a-quote) basis. To proceed, request a quote or send an inquiry and our team will confirm current availability, the exact configuration and lead times. This listing is intended for hospitals, surgical centers, procurement teams, distributors and dealers.
