The 5 1/2″ Cooley Multi-Purpose Clamp 90° Ang is a precision-engineered cardiovascular surgical instrument developed to provide reliable temporary occlusion of blood vessels and controlled tissue handling during complex cardiac and vascular procedures. Renowned for its versatility, this clamp is an essential instrument in cardiovascular operating rooms, where precise vascular control and atraumatic tissue handling are critical to successful surgical outcomes.
Designed with 90° angled jaws, this Cooley Multi-Purpose Clamp allows surgeons to access vessels and anatomical structures that are difficult to reach with straight instruments. The angled configuration improves visibility and maneuverability within confined operative fields, making it particularly useful during open-heart surgery, vascular reconstruction, thoracic procedures, and other delicate cardiovascular interventions.
The atraumatic jaw design distributes clamping pressure evenly across the vessel to minimize tissue injury while providing dependable temporary occlusion. This controlled compression helps preserve vascular integrity during procedures requiring interruption of blood flow, reducing the risk of unnecessary trauma to delicate arteries and veins.
Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the clamp offers excellent resistance to corrosion, staining, and repeated sterilization. The robust construction ensures long-lasting durability while maintaining precise jaw alignment and smooth instrument operation throughout years of clinical use. The satin finish minimizes glare under surgical lighting, enhancing visibility and supporting greater procedural accuracy.
With an overall length of 5 1/2 inches (approximately 14 cm), the instrument provides excellent balance between precision and maneuverability. Its compact profile is especially advantageous during minimally exposed surgical fields where accurate instrument placement is essential. Ergonomic ring handles provide a secure and comfortable grip, allowing surgeons to maintain precise control during lengthy and technically demanding procedures.
The dependable ratchet locking mechanism maintains consistent clamping pressure without requiring continuous hand force, reducing surgeon fatigue and improving workflow efficiency. The smooth opening and closing action enables controlled application and release, supporting safe and effective vessel management throughout the procedure.
The 5 1/2″ Cooley Multi-Purpose Clamp 90° Angled is widely used in cardiovascular surgery, vascular surgery, thoracic surgery, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), arterial repair, aneurysm surgery, and other procedures requiring temporary vascular occlusion or delicate tissue manipulation. Its versatile design also makes it a valuable addition to general vascular and specialty surgical instrument sets.
Designed for repeated professional use, the clamp is fully compatible with standard hospital sterilization protocols, including steam autoclaving. Its high-quality stainless steel construction maintains structural integrity, precision, and corrosion resistance after numerous sterilization cycles, ensuring dependable long-term performance in demanding clinical environments.
Combining ergonomic handling, precision engineering, and durable construction, the 5 1/2″ Cooley Multi-Purpose Clamp 90° Angled provides the reliability and surgical control required by modern cardiovascular and vascular surgeons.
