DEBAKEY 2 mm 20 cm surgical forceps – High-precision atraumatic grip
The DEBAKEY 2 mm - 20 cm forceps from Frimed are an essential instrument in the arsenal of surgeons specialising in thoracic, vascular or cardiac surgery. This straight model, with a length of 20 cm, is designed for technical procedures requiring precision and respect for tissue integrity. It features 2 mm wide jaws, specially designed for the most delicate manipulations, particularly on fine vascular structures or fragile tissues.
The jaws of this forceps feature the renowned DEBAKEY serration: a fine, regular and shallow longitudinal striation that provides a firm grip while minimising the risk of trauma. This serration is specifically designed to prevent crushing of tissue or vessels, even during prolonged procedures or under tension. It guarantees stable grip without compromising local vascularisation, making it the preferred choice for dissections or graft preparation.
Ergonomics is also at the heart of the design. The grip area of the forceps, located on the branches, is finely serrated to provide a secure hold, even with wet gloves or in a bloody surgical field. This often underestimated feature helps reduce hand fatigue for the practitioner and limits the risk of slipping. The instrument maintains an optimal balance between lightness and strength, ensuring a natural and comfortable grip.
This DEBAKEY 2 mm - 20 cm model is particularly suitable for delicate surgical procedures where respect for anatomical structures is paramount. It offers an ideal compromise between finesse, stability and safety. Its straight shape, combined with the narrow width of its jaws and its atraumatic grooves, makes it a benchmark tool in specialised operating theatres.
