Cooley Surgical Retractor 19.1 cm (7.5)

Controlled Retraction for Cardiovascular and General Surgical Access

The Cooley retractor is a surgical retractor designed to hold tissue aside and help maintain access within the operative field. Its 7 1/2-inch profile combines 5x5 teeth, swivel blades, a ring handle, and a ratchet catch to support controlled positioning during cardiovascular and general surgery procedures. The swivel-blade design allows the retractor to be oriented for the working space, while the ring handle and ratchet catch provide a practical grip and holding configuration during handling. This combination supports organized exposure and may help keep the instrument’s position consistent while the surgical team works through the procedure.

Use Cases

• Support controlled tissue retraction during cardiovascular surgical procedures where organized access to the operative field is required.
• Assist with general surgery exposure by holding tissue aside during focused operative work.
• Use the swivel blades to adjust the retractor’s orientation to suit the available working space.
• Engage the ratchet catch when a maintained retraction position is needed during handling.
• Use the ring handle to support controlled instrument manipulation during placement and adjustment.
