The 10.5″ Liddle Aortic Clamp 1 3/8″ DeBakey Jaw is a specialized vascular clamp engineered to deliver accurate and dependable control of the aorta during advanced cardiovascular procedures. Designed with a DeBakey jaw profile, this instrument combines secure vessel engagement with atraumatic handling, making it a valuable tool for cardiac surgeons, vascular specialists, and cardiothoracic surgical teams.

This aortic clamp is commonly used during open-heart surgery, aortic cross-clamping, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), aortic reconstruction, valve replacement procedures, vascular repair, and other major cardiovascular interventions. It enables temporary interruption of blood flow through the aorta, allowing surgeons to create a controlled operative environment for precise surgical repair and reconstruction.

The instrument features a 1 3/8-inch DeBakey jaw design, providing an effective clamping surface for secure engagement of the aortic wall. The DeBakey-style atraumatic serrations are designed to grip vascular tissue gently while minimizing trauma, helping maintain vessel integrity during temporary occlusion. This makes the clamp particularly suitable for procedures requiring dependable control with reduced risk of tissue damage.

With an overall length of 10.5 inches, the Liddle Aortic Clamp offers an ideal combination of reach, balance, and maneuverability. The length allows access to deeper operative fields while maintaining excellent surgeon control. Its ergonomic finger ring handles provide a comfortable grip and improved tactile feedback, supporting precise positioning and reducing hand fatigue during lengthy cardiovascular procedures.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the Liddle Aortic Clamp is built to meet the demanding requirements of modern operating rooms. The durable stainless steel construction provides excellent resistance to corrosion, wear, and repeated sterilization cycles. Its precision-machined components maintain reliable alignment and mechanical performance throughout extended clinical use.

The DeBakey jaw configuration distributes clamping pressure evenly across the vessel surface, helping prevent concentrated pressure points while maintaining effective vascular occlusion. This atraumatic design supports safer handling of delicate cardiovascular tissues and contributes to improved surgical precision.

The clamp incorporates a dependable ratchet locking mechanism that maintains consistent pressure after placement. This secure locking system allows surgeons to maintain stable aortic control without continuous manual force, improving workflow efficiency during complex procedures.

The 10.5″ Liddle Aortic Clamp 1 3/8″ DeBakey Jaw is widely used in cardiovascular surgery departments, cardiothoracic operating rooms, vascular surgery centers, cardiac specialty hospitals, and teaching institutions. Its precise design and reliable performance make it suitable for a wide range of procedures involving aortic control and vascular management.

After each surgical procedure, the instrument can be thoroughly cleaned, disinfected, and sterilized using standard hospital steam autoclave protocols. Its reusable stainless steel construction ensures long-term durability while supporting strict surgical infection control standards.

Combining precise DeBakey jaw technology, ergonomic handling, durable construction, and dependable vascular control, the 10.5″ Liddle Aortic Clamp 1 3/8″ DeBakey Jaw Cardiovascular Surgical Instrument provides surgeons with the accuracy and reliability required for demanding cardiac and vascular procedures.
