10 3/4″ Noto Ovary & Polypus Forceps 17mm Jaws

The 10 3/4″ Noto Ovary & Polypus Forceps are specialized gynecological surgical forceps designed for controlled grasping, holding, and manipulation of appropriate tissue structures during compatible procedures. Their extended 10 3/4-inch length provides additional reach within the operative field, while the 17 mm jaws provide a defined working area for controlled tissue handling.

The instrument is designed for applications requiring careful grasping and positioning rather than general-purpose handling. Its dedicated configuration supports precise instrument placement and controlled manipulation during gynecological surgery.

Design and Configuration

The Noto Ovary & Polypus Forceps feature an extended 10 3/4-inch instrument profile with 17 mm jaws. The elongated configuration can assist with access to the operative field while allowing the user to maintain controlled hand positioning.

The jaw design provides a defined grasping surface appropriate for the intended applications. Proper alignment and smooth operation should be verified before use.

Working-End Characteristics

The 17 mm jaws provide the instrument's primary grasping and holding surface. The working end is intended to support controlled tissue manipulation and positioning during compatible procedures.

The jaws should be inspected before use to ensure that they remain properly aligned and free from damage or deformation.

Gynecological Surgical Applications

The Noto Ovary & Polypus Forceps may be suitable for compatible gynecological procedures requiring:

• Controlled grasping of appropriate tissue structures
• Handling and positioning of ovarian tissue
• Manipulation of appropriate polypus tissue
• Stabilization during surgical procedures
• Extended access within the operative field

The exact application should be determined by the surgeon according to the procedure and intended surgical technique.

Handling and Use Considerations

The forceps should be operated with controlled pressure appropriate to the intended tissue and application. Excessive force should be avoided to help maintain proper jaw alignment and instrument performance.

Before use, check the jaws, hinge, handle, and overall instrument condition. Any instrument showing damage, misalignment, or impaired movement should be evaluated before clinical use.

Cleaning and Instrument Care

After use, clean the forceps according to the healthcare facility's validated instrument-processing protocol. Particular attention should be given to the jaws and hinge area, where biological residue can accumulate.

After cleaning, inspect the working end for proper alignment and confirm that the forceps open and close smoothly.

Sterilization and Inspection

Sterilization should be performed according to the manufacturer's validated instructions and the healthcare facility's established sterilization protocol. Before reuse, inspect the jaws, hinge, and overall surface condition to ensure the instrument remains suitable for its intended application.
