Snap-On Lateral Blades

for detachable balfour retractor systems

Senn Retractor is a double-ended instrument that is generally used in procedures such as orthopedic surgeries. One end of the retractor has three prongs that are available in sharp or blunt points. These prongs may help to spread an incision in order to provide increased visibility on the body part that is being operated. The other end of the retractor contains an L-shaped prong that typically functions as a handle or can also be useful for small incisions.

Sofield Retractor

double-ended

Sofield Retractor is a double-ended instrument with right-angle ends on each side. This retractor can be used for general surgeries to retract skin or tissue away from the area being operated. This retractor is available in different lengths depending on how deep they will be placed. They are also offered in a set of six, which includes one of each length.

1×1 prong, sharp, w/ ratchet, 4-1/8″ (10.5 cm)

Spring Retractor contains 1×1 sharp prongs that curve outward and allow the skin to be penetrated. The spring tension at the handle end of the retractor helps to hold the prongs apart until the surgeon applies pressure. After the instrument is placed in the desired position, the ratchet helps to hold it in place until it is released.

Spring Retractor – 3X3 Prongs

3×3 sharp prongs

Spring Retractor is designed to produce a more even distribution when force is applied in situations that require a wound to be held open on both sides. As a result, there is less damage to tissues due to the 3×3 sharp prongs at the ends that contain a larger surface area. To suit different scenarios, this retractor is offered in different lengths.
