The Farabeuf Periosteal Raspatory Elevator – Straight 15 cm, 5 PCs Set is a specialized orthopedic surgical instrument designed for controlled elevation, separation, and manipulation of periosteal tissue and associated soft tissue structures. Its straight profile and 15 cm length provide a practical balance between working reach and instrument handling for selected surgical applications.
Periosteal elevators and raspatories are commonly used in orthopedic and other surgical procedures where controlled tissue elevation is required to expose or access underlying bone. The Farabeuf-style design provides a functional working profile for manipulating tissue while maintaining direct control of the instrument. The exact application depends on the surgical procedure, anatomical location, and surgeon’s established technique.
The straight configuration can be useful where a direct instrument path is preferred. At 15 cm in length, the instrument offers a moderate working reach suitable for a variety of accessible surgical fields. The design allows the surgical professional to maintain a controlled grip while positioning the working end against the intended tissue plane.
This product is supplied as a 5-piece set, making it useful for hospitals, orthopedic operating rooms, surgical centers, medical schools, and instrument departments that require multiple periosteal elevators. Multiple pieces can also provide convenient tray organization and availability during procedures where more than one instrument is required.
The instrument is intended for professional surgical use and should be selected according to the requirements of the specific procedure. It can be incorporated into orthopedic instrument sets alongside bone elevators, osteotomes, chisels, retractors, curettes, and other bone and soft-tissue instruments.
Construction is intended for durability and repeated professional handling. When supplied as reusable instruments, proper cleaning, inspection, maintenance, and sterilization are essential for preserving the instrument’s working condition. The working surface should be checked regularly for deformation, damage, corrosion, or other abnormalities that could affect function.
The 15 cm straight design also makes the instrument convenient for organized storage in standard surgical trays. Its relatively compact profile allows it to be included with other orthopedic and periosteal instrumentation without requiring excessive tray space.
For reusable instruments, cleaning, disinfection, inspection, packaging, and sterilization should be performed according to the manufacturer’s validated instructions and the healthcare facility’s infection-control procedures. Instruments should be inspected before each use to ensure that the working end and handle remain in suitable condition.
Overall, the Farabeuf Periosteal Raspatory Elevator 15 cm 5-piece set provides a practical collection of straight periosteal elevators for selected orthopedic and surgical applications. Its standardized length, straight working profile, and multi-piece configuration make it a useful addition to professional surgical instrument inventories.
