Orthopedic Periosteal Elevator

Controlled Elevation with a Blunt Working Tip

The D/E Blunt Elevator is an elevator instrument designed to lift, separate, or mobilize tissue and other structures during operative handling. Its blunt tip supports deliberate contact where a controlled elevating action is preferred over a sharp dissecting point, helping the user position the instrument with awareness of the working end. The straightforward design suits tasks that require access, elevation, and localized manipulation within an established surgical field. By combining a recognizable elevator format with a blunt tip, this instrument provides a practical option for routine handling workflows that call for measured force and careful instrument control.

Use Cases

• Elevating tissue or structures during surgical handling with a blunt working end.
• Separating or mobilizing tissue planes where a controlled elevating action is appropriate.
• Supporting localized manipulation within an established operative field.
• Providing a blunt-tipped option for tasks that do not call for a sharp dissecting point.

Specifications
