Orthopedic Periosteal Elevator Curved 13.0 mm Tip 17.1 cm (6.7)

Controlled Elevation for General Surgical Handling

The Scott-McCracken elevator is a general surgery instrument used for controlled elevation and tissue separation during operative handling. Its curved 13.0 mm wide blade supports access along contoured anatomical surfaces, while the 6 3/4" length provides useful reach within the operative field. The round handle offers a familiar, straightforward grip for positioning and manipulation. Together, these design details support practical instrument control when a surgeon needs an elevator with a defined curved profile and moderate blade width. Its focused configuration can help integrate elevation tasks into routine general surgical workflows without adding unnecessary instrument complexity.

Use Cases

• Elevating tissue or anatomical structures during general surgical procedures.
• Using the curved blade profile to approach contoured surfaces within the operative field.
• Applying a 13.0 mm wide blade where a defined elevation surface is appropriate.
• Supporting controlled instrument positioning through the round handle during operative handling.
• Adding reach for elevation tasks with a 6 3/4" instrument length.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the elevator according to facility protocols and the applicable instrument-care instructions.
• Inspect the curved blade, blade edge, and round handle before and after use for visible soil, damage, or deformation.
• Handle the blade carefully during transport, cleaning, and storage to help protect its working profile.
• Store the instrument in a manner that prevents contact damage and keeps it ready for subsequent inspection and use.
