Orthopedic Periosteal Elevator 15.0 cm (6")

Controlled Elevation for General Surgery

The Elevator 6" #191 hexagonal handle is a general surgery instrument intended for controlled elevation and manipulation during operative tasks. Its 6-inch length provides a practical working reach, while the hexagonal handle profile offers a defined gripping surface for instrument positioning and handling. This combination supports routine surgical workflows that require deliberate elevation, separation, or access around anatomical structures. The compact format can help maintain responsive instrument control at the field, making it a useful addition to general-purpose elevator sets where consistent handling and straightforward identification by size number are important.

Use Cases

• Elevating tissue or structures during general surgical dissection.
• Supporting controlled separation of tissue planes where an elevator is appropriate.
• Providing working access around structures during routine operative handling.
• Using a defined hexagonal handle surface to position and guide the instrument during elevator tasks.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Handle and transport the instrument carefully to protect the working end and hexagonal handle from impact or unnecessary contact with other instruments.
• Store the instrument in a clean, dry location where it can be protected from damage and readily inspected before use.
