The 7 3/4″ DeBakey Tangential Occlusion Clamp 3.5cm Length × 1.1cm Depth Cardiovascular Clamp is a specialized cardiovascular surgical instrument designed for controlled tangential occlusion of blood vessels during complex vascular and cardiac procedures. Based on the trusted DeBakey design, this clamp provides surgeons with precise handling, reliable vessel control, and atraumatic performance when partial interruption of blood flow is required.

Featuring an overall length of 7 3/4 inches (approximately 19.7 cm), this tangential occlusion clamp offers excellent balance between reach and maneuverability. The instrument is designed to provide access and control within challenging surgical fields while maintaining optimal visibility. Its carefully engineered jaw dimensions, including a 3.5 cm jaw length and 1.1 cm depth, allow effective engagement with vascular structures while supporting controlled partial occlusion.

The defining characteristic of the DeBakey Tangential Occlusion Clamp is its atraumatic DeBakey-style jaw pattern. These finely crafted jaws are designed to distribute pressure evenly across the vessel surface, reducing the risk of endothelial injury and unnecessary tissue trauma. This makes the clamp particularly valuable in procedures where maintaining vessel integrity is essential, including vascular grafting, arterial repair, anastomosis preparation, and cardiovascular reconstruction.

The tangential clamping mechanism allows surgeons to occlude a portion of the vessel while maintaining blood flow through the remaining lumen. This feature is especially useful during vascular procedures that require precise manipulation of arteries without complete interruption of circulation. The clamp supports advanced surgical techniques by providing stable control while minimizing interference with surrounding anatomical structures.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the 7 3/4″ DeBakey Tangential Occlusion Clamp Cardiovascular Clamp offers excellent durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term reliability. The precision-machined construction ensures smooth jaw movement, accurate alignment, and dependable performance after repeated clinical use. Its satin finish reduces glare under operating room lighting and allows efficient cleaning and maintenance.

The instrument incorporates a precision box lock and secure ratchet mechanism to provide controlled application of pressure. Surgeons can achieve consistent vessel stabilization without excessive force, helping protect delicate vascular tissues. The ergonomic handle design provides comfortable grip, excellent balance, and superior tactile feedback during extended cardiovascular procedures.

The 7 3/4″ DeBakey Tangential Occlusion Clamp 3.5cm Length × 1.1cm Depth is commonly used in cardiovascular surgery, vascular reconstruction, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), arterial anastomosis, aneurysm repair, and other procedures requiring partial vessel occlusion. Its specialized design makes it a valuable addition to cardiovascular instrument trays used in hospitals, cardiac centers, and vascular surgery facilities.

Designed for professional surgical environments, this reusable cardiovascular clamp is compatible with standard sterilization procedures, including steam autoclaving. The durable stainless steel construction maintains jaw integrity, alignment, and mechanical performance through repeated cleaning and sterilization cycles, ensuring dependable service throughout its operating life.

Combining advanced DeBakey atraumatic jaw technology, precise tangential occlusion capability, and durable surgical construction, the 7 3/4″ DeBakey Tangential Occlusion Clamp Cardiovascular Clamp provides surgeons with the control and reliability required for demanding vascular procedures. It is an essential instrument for professionals seeking precision, safety, and consistent performance in cardiovascular surgery.
