The DeBakey Coarctation Clamp 9″ Straight Jaws 5.5cm is a premium cardiovascular surgical instrument engineered to provide reliable temporary vascular occlusion during cardiac, thoracic, and vascular procedures. Designed in the renowned DeBakey pattern, this specialized clamp combines an ergonomic angled handle with straight atraumatic jaws, allowing surgeons to achieve precise vessel control while maintaining excellent visibility and maneuverability.

With an overall length of 9 inches, the DeBakey Coarctation Clamp offers an ideal balance between reach and precision. Its compact profile enables efficient handling in both open and moderately deep operative fields, making it particularly suitable for procedures involving the thoracic aorta, major arteries, and other large vascular structures.

The instrument features 5.5cm straight jaws that provide a broad and stable clamping surface for secure temporary occlusion of blood vessels. The straight jaw configuration allows direct alignment with the vessel, ensuring accurate placement and dependable vascular control. The angled handle improves hand positioning and enhances access around surrounding anatomical structures, reducing surgeon fatigue while maintaining a clear operative field.

The atraumatic DeBakey serrated jaws are designed to distribute clamping pressure evenly across the vessel wall, helping minimize endothelial injury while maintaining secure occlusion. This design supports delicate vascular handling and helps preserve vessel integrity during complex procedures such as aortic coarctation repair, vascular reconstruction, arterial repair, aneurysm surgery, and bypass procedures.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the DeBakey Coarctation Clamp provides exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term clinical performance. Precision engineering ensures smooth jaw alignment, dependable ratchet engagement, and consistent operation through repeated surgical use and sterilization cycles. The satin finish minimizes glare under operating room lighting while supporting efficient cleaning and maintenance.

Ergonomically designed ring handles provide a secure and comfortable grip, allowing surgeons to maintain excellent tactile feedback and precise control throughout lengthy procedures. The integrated ratchet locking mechanism offers multiple locking positions for adjustable clamping pressure, enabling safe vessel occlusion based on vessel size and procedural requirements.

Widely used in cardiovascular surgery, thoracic surgery, vascular surgery, and congenital cardiac procedures, the 9″ DeBakey Coarctation Clamp is an essential component of cardiovascular instrument trays and vascular surgery sets. Its specialized design provides dependable vascular control while supporting efficient surgical workflow.

The instrument is fully compatible with standard hospital sterilization methods, including steam autoclaving. Proper cleaning, inspection, and routine maintenance help preserve jaw alignment, mechanical integrity, and long-term functionality.
