Expanded Surgical Retractor

Controlled Retraction for General Surgical Access

The Expanded Lobster Retractor System is a surgical retractor designed to help maintain tissue separation during general surgery and other surgical retractor applications. Its system-based format supports organized retraction when a stable working field and practical access are important to the procedure. By helping hold tissue away from the operative area, it can support visualization and provide room for instrument handling while reducing the need for continuous manual retraction. The expanded lobster design is suited to workflows that call for controlled exposure and dependable positioning within the surgical field. Use it according to facility protocols and the applicable instructions for use.

Use Cases

• Support tissue retraction during general surgical procedures.
• Maintain separation of tissue to help preserve access to the operative area.
• Assist with exposure and visualization while other instruments are used.
• Provide a dedicated retractor option for surgical retractor workflows requiring organized, controlled positioning.

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the system according to the applicable instructions for use and facility protocols.
• Inspect the retractor system before and after use for visible soil, damage, or changes that could affect handling.
• Handle the system carefully during cleaning, transport, and setup to help protect its components.
• Store the system in a clean, protected location consistent with facility procedures.
