7 1/2 Jacobson Probe straight handle angled ball tip

Defined Reach for Careful Probing and Dilation

The 7 1/2" Jacobson Probe is a surgical probe and dilator designed for controlled exploration, passage assessment, and gentle dilation in procedures where a defined working length and rounded tip are useful. Its straight handle supports a familiar, direct grip, while the angled ball tip provides a distinct distal profile for navigating and assessing access along the intended path. The 7.5-inch overall length offers practical reach for General Surgery and Neurosurgery workflows without adding unnecessary complexity to the instrument setup. This specialty-neutral design can support organized handling during focused procedural tasks while allowing clinicians to work according to facility technique and protocol.

Use Cases

• Use as a probe for exploring or assessing a passage during General Surgery procedures.
• Support controlled dilation tasks within the Dilator & Probes instrument family.
• Use the rounded ball tip when a defined, non-sharp distal profile is appropriate for probing.
• Apply in Neurosurgery workflows requiring a 7.5-inch probe for focused access and instrument handling.
• Use the straight handle for direct manipulation during procedural examination or passage assessment.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the probe promptly after use according to facility protocols and applicable instrument-care instructions.
• Inspect the straight handle, angled ball tip, and working surface for residue, damage, or deformation before reuse.
• Handle the ball tip carefully during cleaning, transfer, and setup to preserve the intended distal profile.
• Store the instrument in a manner that protects the tip and prevents contact damage from other instruments.
