The 3/4″ Workhorse Richardson Retractor combines a 2-inch overall length with a 3/4-inch working width and slightly deeper configuration.
Its defined working profile is intended for controlled tissue retraction in general surgery applications.

Design & Function

The Workhorse Richardson Retractor features a slightly deeper working configuration designed to provide a specialized orientation during tissue retraction. The working end design can assist in positioning the retractor according to the requirements of the operative field.

The 3/4-inch working width provides a defined retraction profile, while the 2-inch overall length allows controlled manual positioning. Together, these dimensions provide a practical configuration for general surgical procedures requiring a slightly deeper retractor.

Surgical Applications

The 3/4″ Workhorse Richardson Retractor may be used for general surgery and abdominal or thoracic applications involving controlled tissue retraction. Specific use depends on the surgical procedure, technique, anatomical site, and preference of the clinical team.

Handling & Instrument Care

Inspect the Workhorse Richardson Retractor before use, paying particular attention to the working end and alignment. Ensure the instrument is properly aligned and free from visible damage or wear before use.

After use, clean and process the instrument according to the manufacturer's validated instructions and the healthcare facility's established instrument-processing protocols. Store the Workhorse Richardson Retractor appropriately to protect its working end and prevent unnecessary contact with other instruments.
