The 5 1/2″ Kitzmiller Right-Angled Jaw Clamp Titanium Cardiovascular Clamp is a high-quality cardiovascular surgical instrument designed to deliver precise and controlled vascular occlusion during complex cardiac and vascular procedures. Featuring a trusted Kitzmiller pattern with right-angled jaws, this clamp provides surgeons with improved access to difficult anatomical areas while maintaining excellent visibility and control. Its titanium construction offers significant advantages in weight reduction, durability, and corrosion resistance, making it a valuable instrument for advanced cardiovascular surgery.

With an overall length of 5 1/2 inches (approximately 14 cm), this compact cardiovascular clamp is designed for use in confined surgical fields where precision and maneuverability are essential. The right-angled jaw configuration allows surgeons to approach vessels from an optimal angle, improving access around delicate vascular structures while reducing interference with surrounding tissues. This makes the clamp especially useful in procedures involving small arteries, veins, and challenging operative locations.

The atraumatic jaw design of the Kitzmiller Right-Angled Jaw Clamp provides secure vessel control while minimizing damage to delicate vascular tissues. The carefully engineered jaws apply balanced pressure, allowing temporary occlusion without unnecessary compression. This feature is particularly important in cardiovascular procedures where maintaining vessel integrity and reducing trauma are critical for successful surgical outcomes.

Manufactured from premium titanium, the clamp provides exceptional strength while being significantly lighter than traditional stainless steel instruments. Titanium construction offers excellent resistance to corrosion, high biocompatibility, and reliable performance through repeated sterilization cycles. The lightweight design improves surgeon comfort and reduces hand fatigue, especially during prolonged cardiovascular procedures requiring precise instrument manipulation.

The instrument features a precision-engineered locking mechanism that ensures smooth operation and consistent jaw alignment. The secure ratchet system allows controlled application of pressure, enabling surgeons to achieve dependable vessel occlusion with confidence. The ergonomic handle design provides excellent grip, balance, and tactile feedback, supporting accurate surgical techniques during delicate vascular interventions.

The 5 1/2″ Kitzmiller Right-Angled Jaw Clamp Titanium Cardiovascular Clamp is commonly used in cardiovascular surgery, vascular reconstruction, pediatric cardiac procedures, microsurgical vascular repair, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), and other operations requiring accurate vessel handling. Its right-angle design makes it particularly effective when direct access is limited or when precise positioning around anatomical structures is required.

Designed for professional operating room environments, this titanium cardiovascular clamp is reusable and compatible with standard sterilization procedures, including steam autoclaving. Its durable titanium construction maintains structural integrity, jaw precision, and mechanical reliability through repeated clinical use. This makes it an excellent choice for hospitals, cardiac centers, and specialty vascular surgery units seeking lightweight and dependable surgical instruments.

The 5 1/2″ Kitzmiller Right-Angled Jaw Clamp Titanium Cardiovascular Clamp combines advanced surgical engineering, lightweight titanium performance, and atraumatic vessel control to meet the demanding requirements of modern cardiovascular procedures. Its precise design and durable construction make it a trusted instrument for surgeons requiring accuracy, reliability, and superior handling during complex vascular operations.
