Shepard Tissue Forceps Straight 12.0 cm (4.7)

Precision Bipolar Coagulation with Enhanced Control and Visibility

Achieve precise hemostasis in delicate surgical fields with the Shepard bipolar forceps, engineered for surgeons who demand accuracy without compromising tissue integrity. The 0.6mm wide tips provide a fine point of contact ideal for meticulous coagulation, while the non-stick coating minimizes tissue adherence and char buildup during energy application. Designed with a straight profile and a total length of 4 5/8 inches, these forceps offer direct line-of-sight access to superficial and moderately deep structures. The wide flat handle supports a secure, familiar grip, reducing hand fatigue during prolonged procedures and allowing for steady, controlled manipulation across general surgery, neurosurgical, and ophthalmic applications.

Use Cases

• Performing precise bipolar coagulation on small vessels in general surgical procedures requiring fine tip control.
• Executing delicate hemostasis in neurosurgical contexts where minimal thermal spread and non-stick performance are critical.
• Managing fine tissue coagulation in ophthalmic surgeries benefiting from the 0.6mm tip width and straight access profile.
• Reducing intraoperative cleanup time by utilizing non-stick tips that resist tissue bonding during energy delivery.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Inspect tips regularly for coating integrity and alignment to supports consistent performance and prevent tissue damage.
• Clean thoroughly after each use according to facility protocols, supports all biological debris is removed from the tip junction.
• Handle with care to preserve the non-stick coating; avoid using abrasive cleaners or sharp instruments that may scratch the surface.
• Store in a protected environment to prevent tip deformation or damage to the handle mechanism.
