Description

The DeBakey-Semb Ligature Carrier has a long shaft with a broad curve at the working end. The tip bends upwards and has a narrow, grooved section measuring 15 mm. This curved shape allows the instrument to reach around structures when placing a ligature during surgery.

The instrument measures 25 cm (10″) in overall length. Its shaft extends from the curved tip to the ring handles, keeping the working end well away from the grip. The broad curve is the main feature of this pattern, with the tip turning upwards rather than ending in a straight line.

The end has a small grooved section where the ligature can be held during placement. The rest of the shaft is slim and smooth, following a gradual curve before straightening towards the handles. This design distinguishes the instrument from straight ligature carriers, which have a different approach to the working area.

Two oval finger rings form the handles, and a ratchet lock sits close to the central joint. The rings provide a familiar grip when opening and closing the instrument. The lock holds it closed when engaged and can be released as needed. The long shaft and curved tip give the carrier its characteristic profile.

The instrument is made from surgical stainless steel and is intended for repeated use after proper cleaning and sterilization. Before dispatch, each piece goes through our quality inspection process.
