Joseph Periosteal Elevator Straight 5.0 mm Tip 17.1 cm (6.7)

Controlled Periosteal Elevation for ENT and General Surgery

The Joseph periosteal elevator is a hand-held surgical instrument designed to lift and reflect periosteum during tissue preparation. Its straight 5.0mm-wide blade supports focused contact along the working area, while the 6 3/4-inch length and flat handle provide a practical format for controlled manual handling. The #4 configuration is suited to workflows requiring a defined elevator profile rather than a curved blade. Use it in appropriate ENT and General Surgery procedures where periosteal elevation and tissue reflection are part of the operative technique, following established facility practices and the applicable instructions for use.

Use Cases

• Lift and reflect periosteum during General Surgery procedures requiring controlled tissue preparation.
• Support ENT procedures involving periosteal elevation in an appropriately selected operative field.
• Use the straight blade to maintain a direct working orientation during manual elevation tasks.
• Apply the 5.0mm-wide blade for focused contact when a defined blade width is appropriate to the procedure.
