Hospital & Volume Procurement Pricing
The OB/GYN 6″ Boys-Allis Forceps are specialized surgical forceps designed for controlled grasping and manipulation during compatible gynecological procedures. The instrument features a 6-inch overall length, heavy construction, and a 5 × 6 jaw configuration.
The compact length provides controlled manual handling and positioning, while the heavy pattern provides a more substantial instrument profile. The 5 × 6 configuration identifies the supplied arrangement of the working jaws.
Design and Configuration
The forceps feature a 6-inch overall length with a heavy construction and 5 × 6 jaw configuration. The handle is designed for controlled manual operation, while the working jaws provide a defined grasping profile.
The jaws should open and close smoothly and remain properly aligned. Before use, the instrument should be inspected for structural integrity, proper jaw alignment, surface condition, and mechanical function.
Working-End Characteristics
The 5 × 6 jaw configuration provides a defined grasping profile for controlled tissue handling and manipulation. The heavy design provides a substantial working construction appropriate for applications requiring this instrument configuration.
The working jaws should remain properly formed and aligned. Any visible deformation, damage, corrosion, or abnormal movement should be evaluated before use.
Gynecological Applications
The OB/GYN 6″ Boys-Allis Forceps may be used for compatible gynecological procedures requiring controlled grasping, holding, or manipulation of tissue and other relevant structures.
Specific clinical application and instrument selection should be determined by a qualified healthcare professional according to the procedure and established clinical protocols.
Handling and Use Considerations
The 6-inch length provides a compact working profile while allowing controlled manual positioning. The heavy construction should be handled appropriately to preserve the integrity of the instrument.
Before use, verify that the forceps are clean, properly aligned, and functioning correctly. Instruments with damaged or deformed jaws should be removed from service.
Cleaning and Instrument Care
Clean the forceps promptly after use according to the healthcare facility's validated instrument-cleaning procedure. Pay particular attention to the jaws, hinge, and other areas where residual material may accumulate.
After cleaning, inspect the working jaws and mechanical components for residue, corrosion, deformation, or other visible damage. Confirm smooth jaw movement before sterilization and reuse.
Sterilization and Inspection
Sterilization should be performed according to the manufacturer's validated instructions and the healthcare facility's established sterilization protocol. Before each use, inspect the forceps for cleanliness, corrosion, cracks, deformation, loose components, and restricted movement.
Any instrument showing compromised structural integrity or functionality should be removed from service and evaluated according to institutional procedures.
