The Resnick Allis Bone Clamp is a specialized orthopedic instrument designed for controlled handling and positioning of bone structures during compatible orthopedic and trauma procedures. Its compact 6" (15.2 cm) overall length provides a practical configuration for controlled manipulation.

The clamp incorporates a ratcheted mechanism that opens to 37 mm, allowing the jaws to accommodate appropriately sized structures within the specified working range. The clamp end has a 4.7 mm width, providing a relatively narrow working profile.

Design and Configuration

The Resnick Allis Bone Clamp combines a compact overall length with a ratcheted clamping mechanism.

Key features include:

• 6" (15.2 cm) overall length
• Ratcheted clamp opening to 37 mm
• 4.7 mm clamp end width
• Compact configuration for controlled handling

Orthopedic Applications

The Resnick Allis Bone Clamp is designed for compatible applications involving:

• Controlled bone handling
• Bone positioning and stabilization
• Orthopedic trauma procedures
• Procedures requiring a compact ratcheted bone clamp

Specific application should be determined according to the applicable surgical technique and procedural requirements.

Handling and Use Considerations

The clamp should be selected according to the size of the structure being engaged and the required working range. The ratchet mechanism should be operated within its specified opening capacity.

The instrument should not be subjected to forces beyond its intended mechanical capabilities.

Cleaning and Instrument Care

Reusable surgical instruments should be cleaned and processed according to applicable manufacturer instructions and validated healthcare-facility protocols. After cleaning, inspect the clamp ends, ratchet mechanism, alignment, and working surfaces for cleanliness and proper function.

Sterilization and Inspection

Before reuse, the clamp should undergo the validated cleaning, disinfection, packaging, and sterilization process appropriate for the instrument. Inspect for damage, deformation, corrosion, or impaired ratchet function before returning it to service.
