Controlled Clamping for Cardiovascular and General Surgical Workflows
The 8" Cooley Patent Ductus Clamp straight shanks is a surgical clamp designed for controlled handling and temporary occlusion of tissue or vessel structures during operative work. Its straight configuration supports a direct instrument path and clear alignment at the working site, while the atraumatic jaw pattern is suited to careful tissue handling. In cardiovascular procedures, it supports focused manipulation around ductus-related anatomy; in general surgery, it provides a familiar clamping format for applicable soft-tissue and vessel-handling tasks. The 8-inch overall length adds working reach while maintaining a straightforward profile for positioning and instrument control.
Use Cases
- Support controlled clamping and manipulation during cardiovascular procedures involving ductus-related anatomy.
- Assist with vessel-handling tasks where an atraumatic jaw pattern is appropriate.
- Provide a straight-shank clamp format for general surgical tissue-handling workflows.
- Use the 8-inch profile when additional working reach is useful at the operative site.
- Apply in workflows requiring direct alignment and practical visualization of the instrument jaws.

Care & Handling
- Clean the clamp according to facility procedures and the applicable manufacturer instructions for use.
- Inspect the atraumatic jaws, straight shanks, and operating mechanism for visible soil, damage, or irregular movement before use.
- Handle the jaws carefully during cleaning, transport, and setup to preserve their working surfaces.
- Store the instrument in a manner that protects the jaws and prevents unnecessary contact with other instruments.
