Angled control for precise suturing access
The Kelman-McPherson suturing forceps is designed to grasp and guide suture during general surgery and ophthalmic procedures. Its 45º angled profile and 8.0mm shafts support access where a straight approach may be less convenient, while the narrow handle is suited to controlled instrument handling. The 1x2-tooth jaw pattern helps engage suture, and the 5.0mm tying platforms provide a defined working area for tying tasks. With a compact 3 3/8" length, this forceps brings focused reach and maneuverability to technique-sensitive suturing workflows without adding unnecessary bulk.
Use Cases
- Grasping and guiding suture during general surgical suturing tasks.
- Supporting controlled tying work with the integrated 5.0mm tying platforms.
- Accessing angled working positions where the 45º profile is useful.
- Handling sutures during ophthalmic procedures requiring a narrow, focused instrument profile.
- Using the 1x2-tooth jaw pattern for secure engagement of suture during manipulation.

Care & Reprocessing
- Clean and reprocess according to facility protocols and the applicable instrument instructions for use.
- Inspect the teeth, tying platforms, angled shafts, and handle before and after use for damage, distortion, or debris.
- Handle the jaw tips carefully to help preserve the 1x2-tooth pattern and functional alignment.
- Store the forceps so the jaws and angled shafts are protected from impact or contact with other instruments.
