Ribbon-Type Malleable Retractors
Ribbon-type malleable retractors are uniquely structured with a flat blade. This blade can take up different shapes to suit the contours of the body. Usually, they are great for retracting organs and soft layers of muscle and skin. Grey Medical stands peerless when it comes to the range of ribbon-type malleable retractors. We guarantee quality and efficiency and take no compromise on the working of our tools.
How are Grey Medical’s Ribbon-Type Malleable Retractors Just Right for your Surgical Field?
Once skin, muscles, and organs are retracted, surgeons can conveniently see the surgical field. One of the top picks by the surgeons is the Ribbon-type malleable retractor.
Key Features
Get to know its following features, precisely:
Design: Every procedure has different demands and needs. Depending on the need, ribbon-type malleable retractors have the power to take the shape of the contours of the body. They are highly flexible.
Material: Although ribbon-type retractors are malleable, they still use surgical-grade stainless steel. We make sure no sub-standard material is used during the construction.
Handheld: Ribbon-type retractors are hand-held for maximum control over the surgical field. A surgeon or a practitioner helps navigate it through the surgical site.
Blunt Edges: As the retractor directly manipulates the skin and surgical incisions, its edges are kept blunt for maximum safety.
Different Sizes: Our collection covers a wide range from ¼’’ to 5’’ wide and 6’’ to 13’’ long. This variety accommodates every surgical need with ease.
