Cooley Surgical Retractor 5.0 cm (2")

Controlled Retraction for Cardiovascular and General Surgical Access

The Cooley atrial valve retractor is a large, left-pattern hand-held retractor designed to support tissue retraction and exposure during operative work. Its 2-inch-wide, 3/8-inch-long blade presents a broad yet short working surface, while the hexagonal handle offers a defined grip for controlled positioning. This configuration is relevant to cardiovascular procedures involving atrial or valvular access and can also support general-surgery workflows when this retractor profile suits the required approach. By combining a recognizable Cooley design with a clear left orientation, it helps teams select and position the instrument efficiently while maintaining practical control during use.

Use Cases

• Support retraction and exposure during cardiovascular procedures involving atrial or valvular access.
• Position the left-pattern blade where a broad, short retraction surface is appropriate.
• Use the hexagonal handle to maintain controlled hand positioning during operative manipulation.
• In general surgery, support tissue retraction when the large left-oriented Cooley profile matches the surgical approach.
• Assist procedural workflows that require a dedicated atrial valve retractor rather than a general-purpose retractor.

Specifications

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the retractor according to facility protocols and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the blade, handle, and working surfaces before and after use for damage, deformation, or residue.
• Handle the blade carefully during cleaning, transport, and setup to preserve its defined dimensions and left-oriented profile.
• Store the retractor in a manner that protects the blade and handle from contact damage.
