Castro Caliper - 1-20mm in 0.5mm increments

Consistent 0.5 mm Measurement for General Surgery

The Castro Caliper is a surgical measuring instrument designed to assess dimensions from 1 to 20 mm in 0.5 mm increments. In general surgery, it supports a more consistent approach to checking small structures, openings, tissue dimensions, and other measurements where a visual estimate may be insufficient. Its graduated range allows clinicians to compare measurements using a clearly defined scale during assessment and procedural workflows. By bringing compact dimensional reference into the operative setting, the caliper can help organize measurement tasks and support clear communication of observed sizes without relying on approximate descriptions alone.

Use Cases

• Measure small anatomical structures or openings within the 1–20 mm range.
• Check and compare dimensions during general-surgery assessment and procedural workflows.
• Use 0.5 mm increments when a finer measurement reference is needed than whole-millimetre estimation.
• Support clear communication of observed dimensions during operative documentation or team discussion.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the caliper according to facility protocols and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the measuring surfaces and graduations before use for visible damage, residue, or legibility concerns.
• Handle carefully during cleaning, transport, and storage to preserve the instrument's measuring surfaces and scale.
• Store in a clean, protected location appropriate for surgical instruments.
