The 12-3/4″ VATS DeBakey Clamp is designed for specialized surgical applications involving video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). Its long-shaft construction and defined jaw dimensions make it a distinct option for surgical teams sourcing instruments for minimally invasive thoracic procedures.
This model features a 10 mm shaft, 65 mm DeBakey jaws, and a 1×2 jaw configuration. These specifications help identify the instrument and distinguish it from other thoracoscopic clamps with different shaft diameters, jaw lengths, or jaw patterns. Buyers should verify the complete product dimensions and intended use with the supplier before ordering.
Shaft and Jaw Design
The instrument features a 10 mm shaft designed for its specified surgical configuration. Shaft diameter is an important consideration when selecting instruments for minimally invasive procedures, particularly when compatibility with access equipment or ports is required. Confirm compatibility with the intended surgical system before use.
The 65 mm DeBakey jaws provide the specified working jaw length, while the 1×2 configuration identifies the jaw pattern. The DeBakey-style designation helps identify the instrument's jaw design, but the precise geometry, serration pattern, and gripping characteristics should be confirmed from the manufacturer's specifications.
Applications in Thoracoscopic Surgery
VATS instruments are used in video-assisted thoracoscopic procedures performed through small incisions with camera-assisted visualization. A specialized clamp may be selected when its design and intended function match the requirements of a particular thoracic procedure.
The suitability of this DeBakey clamp depends on its manufacturer-defined intended use, jaw design, shaft compatibility, and the surgical team's requirements. It should be selected and operated only by qualified healthcare professionals.
Instrument Selection and Compatibility
When purchasing the 12-3/4-inch VATS DeBakey Clamp, review the overall length, 10 mm shaft diameter, 65 mm jaw length, and 1×2 jaw configuration. These details are particularly important when comparing instruments or confirming compatibility with an existing VATS instrument system.
The product title does not specify the handle mechanism, material grade, insulation, or compatibility with particular access ports. These details should be confirmed with the supplier rather than assumed.
Care and Maintenance
Before use, qualified personnel should inspect the instrument for damage, shaft deformation, jaw alignment, and proper mechanical operation. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning, disinfection, sterilization, and storage. Material composition, sterilization compatibility, and reusable status should be verified before clinical use.
