Surgical Scissors 10.0 cm (4")

Compact Umbilical Scissors for Controlled General-Surgery Handling

The 4 1/8" Umbilical Scissors American are surgical scissors intended for umbilical cutting tasks within general-surgery workflows. Their compact 4 1/8-inch format supports close handling when a shorter instrument is practical for the field and procedure setup. The scissor form provides a dedicated cutting tool for controlled, task-focused use rather than relying on a general-purpose instrument. This size can also support organized tray selection and straightforward instrument identification during preparation, use, and turnover. Use the scissors according to facility protocols and the applicable instructions for use.

Use Cases

• Cutting the umbilical cord during applicable surgical or procedural workflows.
• Supporting general-surgery setups that require a dedicated umbilical scissor.
• Selecting a compact scissor for close-range instrument handling.
• Maintaining a clearly identified cutting instrument in organized procedure trays.
