The 5 1/4″ Cooley Pediatric Clamp Angled Shanks Straight Jaw Cardiovascular is a specialized cardiovascular surgical instrument engineered for the temporary occlusion of delicate blood vessels during pediatric cardiac, congenital heart, and vascular surgical procedures. Designed to meet the demanding requirements of pediatric cardiovascular surgery, this clamp offers exceptional precision, atraumatic vessel handling, and superior maneuverability in confined operative fields.

Featuring angled shanks with straight jaws, the instrument provides improved access to small vascular structures while maintaining excellent visualization of the surgical site. The angled shank design positions the surgeon’s hand away from the operative field, allowing unobstructed access to delicate anatomy and facilitating precise clamp placement. The straight jaw configuration ensures uniform compression across the vessel, providing secure temporary occlusion while minimizing tissue trauma.

The atraumatic jaws are carefully engineered to distribute clamping pressure evenly along the vessel wall, reducing the risk of endothelial injury during temporary blood flow interruption. This gentle yet effective clamping action helps preserve vascular integrity, making the instrument particularly suitable for fragile pediatric vessels and congenital cardiovascular procedures where tissue preservation is essential.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the 5 1/4″ Cooley Pediatric Clamp Angled Shanks Straight Jaw Cardiovascular offers exceptional resistance to corrosion, staining, and repeated sterilization. Precision machining ensures smooth jaw alignment, reliable mechanical performance, and long-lasting durability. The satin matte finish minimizes glare under operating room lighting, enhancing visibility during intricate pediatric and cardiovascular procedures.

Measuring 5 1/4 inches (approximately 13.3 cm) in overall length, the clamp provides outstanding maneuverability for delicate operations involving small anatomical structures. Its compact design enables precise handling in restricted operative spaces while maintaining excellent instrument control. Ergonomic ring handles provide a comfortable, secure grip, reducing hand fatigue during prolonged surgical procedures.

The reliable ratchet locking mechanism maintains consistent clamping pressure without requiring continuous hand force, allowing surgeons to focus on meticulous vascular repair and anastomosis. Smooth opening and closing action ensures controlled application and release, contributing to efficient surgical workflow and enhanced procedural accuracy.

The 5 1/4″ Cooley Pediatric Clamp Angled Shanks Straight Jaw Cardiovascular is widely used in pediatric cardiac surgery, congenital heart surgery, cardiovascular surgery, vascular surgery, neonatal procedures, arterial reconstruction, vascular anastomosis, and microvascular interventions. Its compact size and atraumatic design make it an indispensable instrument for pediatric and neonatal cardiovascular procedures.

Designed for repeated professional use, the clamp is fully compatible with standard hospital sterilization protocols, including steam autoclaving. Its premium stainless steel construction maintains structural integrity, corrosion resistance, and precision through numerous sterilization cycles, ensuring dependable long-term clinical performance.

Combining precision craftsmanship, ergonomic design, and atraumatic vascular control, the 5 1/4″ Cooley Pediatric Clamp Angled Shanks Straight Jaw Cardiovascular provides the accuracy and reliability required for advanced pediatric cardiovascular surgery.
