Cushing Bayonet Insulated Bipolar Forceps, American Pattern

Description

Cushing’s Bayonet Insulated bipolar forceps are surgical devices used in minimally invasive procedures to grab tissue, carry electricity for coagulation (blood clotting), and reduce collateral tissue injury.

• Function: To grasp and manipulate tissue.
• Delivering bipolar electrical current for coagulation.
• Reducing bleeding during surgery.
• Design: Cushing. The term “bayonet” alludes to the angulated shape of the handle, which allows for better mobility in restricted surgical settings.
• Insulated: shields the surgeon from electrical current while yet delivering electricity to the forceps tips.
• American Pattern: shows the grabbing mechanism, which most likely has serrated inner jaws for a solid grip on tissue.

Benefits:

• Minimally invasive: allows access through minor incisions.
• Reduced Tissue harm: Bipolar technology directs current flow to the gripped tissue, reducing inadvertent harm to adjacent locations.
• Improved Control: The angulated grip enables for easier viewing and manipulation during laparoscopic or endoscopic treatments.
• Multiple Tip Options: may include several tip diameters (e.g., 1.5mm, 2.0mm) to meet a variety of surgical demands.
• Non-Stick Coating (on some models): minimizes tissue adhesion to the forceps tips, increasing gripping efficiency and reducing charring.
