Richardson Surgical Retractor 3.8 cm (1.5)

Focused Retraction for Controlled Surgical Access

The Jordan-Richardson-Simpson retractor is a hand-held surgical retractor designed to support tissue retraction and help maintain access within the operative field. Its 1" x 1 1/2" configuration provides a defined working profile for focused exposure during General Surgery procedures and other Surgical Retractors applications. The instrument’s compact format can support practical positioning where controlled access and clear visualization are important to the workflow. Used as part of an appropriate retraction technique, it helps the surgical team manage tissue positioning while keeping instrument handling straightforward and task-focused.

Use Cases

• Support tissue retraction during General Surgery procedures requiring focused access to the operative field.
• Assist with maintaining exposure during tasks where a compact retractor profile is appropriate.
• Use within Surgical Retractors workflows to help position tissue and support visualization.
• Incorporate into organized instrument handling for procedures requiring controlled, hand-held retraction.
