Penfield dissector 7 1/4 double-ended size #1, broad dissector sharp round spoon round handle

Versatile Double-Ended Access for Controlled Dissection

The Penfield dissector 7 1/4" double-ended size #1 is a manual surgical dissector designed for tissue separation, elevation, and controlled manipulation during operative work. Its broad dissector end supports broader contact, while the sharp and round spoon profiles provide distinct working surfaces for different dissection tasks. The round handle is shaped for familiar, balanced handling as the instrument is repositioned. At 7 1/4" overall, it offers useful reach within the operative field for General Surgery and Neurosurgery workflows, while the double-ended format keeps two instrument profiles available in one compact instrument.

Use Cases

• Use the broad dissector end for tissue separation and elevation where a wider working profile is useful.
• Select the sharp end for focused dissection tasks requiring a more defined working edge.
• Use the round spoon end for controlled tissue manipulation with its rounded profile.
• Support General Surgery workflows that require changing between broad and more focused dissector profiles.
• Support Neurosurgery workflows where a 7 1/4" double-ended instrument provides access to two named working ends.

Specifications

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the dissector according to facility protocols and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect both working ends and the round handle before and after use for residue, damage, or changes that could affect handling.
• Handle the sharp end carefully during cleaning, transport, and setup to reduce contact-related damage or injury.
• Store the instrument so the sharp, broad, and spoon profiles are protected from impact and remain readily identifiable.
