Description

The Micro Vessel Clip Applicator is designed for placing small vascular clips during microsurgical procedures where careful handling of small vessels is required. It is made for use with GEM Micro Vessel Clips and has a 15 cm / 5¾” length, giving the surgeon a useful reach while keeping the fingers away from the immediate operative area.

The working end has slim, slightly curved jaws that hold the clip during placement. Its narrow profile is suited to the small working spaces encountered in microsurgery, where a bulky instrument can make positioning more difficult. The ring handles allow the jaws to be opened and closed with controlled finger pressure.

Micro vessel clip applicators are used in procedures involving small blood vessels, including microsurgical vascular repair and reconstructive surgery. They are also used in microsurgical procedures where temporary or permanent vessel occlusion is required, depending on the type of clip being applied.

At 15 cm / 5¾” long, the applicator provides enough reach for delicate work without the excessive length of instruments intended for deeper operative fields. The fine jaws are shaped for accurate clip placement rather than general grasping, so the applicator should be paired with compatible GEM micro vessel clips.

The applicator is made from surgical-grade stainless steel, allowing it to be cleaned, sterilized, and reused in a professional surgical setting. The jaws, handle movement, alignment, and overall finish should be checked during instrument inspection before use.

The Micro Vessel Clip Applicator provides a fine, purpose-built instrument for placing GEM Micro Vessel Clips during microsurgical procedures.
