The 4 3/4″ Castaneda Clamp CVD Shank Spoon Cardiovascular Clamp is a highly specialized cardiovascular surgical instrument developed to provide surgeons with exceptional precision during delicate vascular procedures. Designed specifically for temporary occlusion of arteries, veins, and other vascular structures, this clamp is widely utilized in pediatric cardiac surgery, congenital heart procedures, vascular reconstruction, and microsurgical interventions where accurate vessel control is essential.

Featuring a compact 4 3/4-inch overall length, this Castaneda clamp is ideal for operating within confined surgical fields. Its curved (CVD) shank improves visibility and allows easier access around anatomical structures, while the spoon-shaped jaws distribute pressure evenly across blood vessels. This atraumatic jaw configuration helps minimize vessel injury and reduces the risk of endothelial damage during temporary occlusion.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the clamp delivers outstanding corrosion resistance, long-term durability, and dependable performance in demanding operating room environments. The finely engineered spring mechanism provides smooth opening and closing action, enabling surgeons to apply controlled pressure consistently throughout cardiovascular procedures. Its lightweight construction also enhances handling, helping reduce hand fatigue during lengthy surgeries.

The 4 3/4″ Castaneda Clamp CVD Shank Spoon Cardiovascular Clamp is commonly selected for pediatric cardiovascular operations because of its compact size and precise clamping capabilities. The spoon jaw design offers secure vessel control without excessive compression, making it suitable for fragile blood vessels encountered in neonatal and pediatric patients. It is equally valuable during vascular bypass procedures, arterial reconstruction, microsurgical vascular repair, and other cardiovascular interventions requiring temporary blood flow interruption.

Ergonomically designed for maximum surgical efficiency, the clamp provides excellent balance and tactile feedback, allowing surgeons to perform delicate manipulations with confidence. The curved shank improves instrument positioning while maintaining a clear operative field, contributing to greater procedural accuracy. These characteristics make the clamp an essential addition to cardiovascular surgical instrument sets used by cardiac surgeons, vascular surgeons, and specialized operating teams.

The instrument is fully reusable and designed to withstand repeated sterilization without compromising structural integrity or performance. It is compatible with standard hospital sterilization protocols, including steam autoclaving, ensuring consistent hygiene and compliance with modern surgical standards. Its polished finish simplifies cleaning while enhancing resistance to staining and corrosion.

Whether used in advanced cardiac centers, specialty vascular clinics, or hospital operating rooms, the 4 3/4″ Castaneda Clamp CVD Shank Spoon Cardiovascular Clamp delivers dependable vessel control, exceptional precision, and long-lasting reliability. Combining atraumatic performance, premium materials, ergonomic handling, and durable construction, this instrument supports safe and efficient cardiovascular surgery while meeting the demanding expectations of modern surgical professionals.
