Deaver Surgical Retractor 36.8 cm (14.5)

Reach and controlled exposure for demanding surgical fields

The Deaver retractor is a handheld surgical retractor designed to draw back tissue and help maintain exposure during operative procedures. Its 14 1/2-inch length provides useful reach, while the 2 1/2-inch-wide blade supports broad retraction across appropriate surgical fields. The hollow grip handle offers a defined surface for controlled handling during positioning and adjustment. This configuration can support exposure workflows in cardiovascular, general surgery, neurosurgery, and orthopedic settings where dependable manual retraction is required. Its straightforward design helps clinicians position the instrument efficiently while maintaining attention on the operative field.
