The 5 1/4″ Cooley Pediatric Clamp Straight Shanks Spoon Jaw Cardiovascular is a specialized cardiovascular surgical instrument engineered to provide safe and reliable temporary vascular occlusion during pediatric cardiac, congenital heart, and vascular surgical procedures. Designed specifically for the delicate anatomy encountered in infants and children, this clamp combines precision craftsmanship with atraumatic vessel handling to support optimal surgical outcomes.

Featuring straight shanks and spoon-shaped jaws, the instrument offers direct access and excellent control when working around fragile pediatric blood vessels. The straight shank configuration allows accurate instrument alignment and comfortable handling, while the spoon-shaped jaws gently cradle the vessel to provide secure temporary occlusion with minimal compression. This design helps reduce the risk of endothelial injury and preserves vessel integrity during complex cardiovascular procedures.

The atraumatic spoon jaws distribute clamping pressure evenly across the vessel wall, minimizing localized stress while maintaining effective blood flow interruption. This gentle clamping action is particularly valuable during vascular anastomosis, congenital heart repair, and other pediatric cardiovascular procedures where delicate tissue preservation is essential.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the 5 1/4″ Cooley Pediatric Clamp Straight Shanks Spoon Jaw Cardiovascular delivers excellent resistance to corrosion, staining, and repeated sterilization. Precision machining ensures smooth jaw alignment, reliable mechanical operation, and consistent clamping performance throughout years of clinical use. The satin matte finish minimizes glare from operating room lighting, improving visualization during intricate surgical procedures.

Measuring 5 1/4 inches (approximately 13.3 cm) in overall length, the clamp offers exceptional maneuverability within small operative fields. Its compact profile enables surgeons to perform delicate vascular procedures with outstanding precision while maintaining complete control. Ergonomic ring handles provide a secure, comfortable grip that helps reduce hand fatigue during lengthy surgical interventions.

The dependable ratchet locking mechanism maintains consistent clamping pressure without continuous hand force, allowing surgeons to concentrate on meticulous vascular repair. Smooth opening and closing action ensures controlled application and release, contributing to efficient workflow and improved procedural accuracy.

The 5 1/4″ Cooley Pediatric Clamp Straight Shanks Spoon Jaw Cardiovascular is widely used in pediatric cardiac surgery, congenital heart surgery, neonatal cardiovascular procedures, vascular surgery, microvascular surgery, arterial reconstruction, vascular anastomosis, and thoracic surgery. Its atraumatic spoon jaw configuration makes it particularly suitable for temporary occlusion of small and fragile blood vessels.

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

Combining precision engineering, ergonomic handling, and atraumatic spoon jaw technology, the 5 1/4″ Cooley Pediatric Clamp Straight Shanks Spoon Jaw Cardiovascular delivers the reliability, vessel protection, and surgical precision required for advanced pediatric cardiovascular procedures.
