University Tissue Forceps Straight 6.5 cm (2.6)

Controlled Reach for Precise Ear Dressing and General Surgical Handling

The University of Michigan Lucae ear dressing forceps is a bayonet-style forceps designed for placing, positioning, and retrieving dressing material in confined working areas. Its 5 1/2-inch length and 65.0 mm working length provide useful reach, while the bayonet configuration can help keep the handle clear of the direct line of sight during ENT tasks. Straight, oval cup jaws measuring 1.0 mm x 2.5 mm support focused handling of small dressing materials. The flat handle offers a familiar surface for controlled manipulation in ENT and general surgery workflows where access, visibility, and deliberate instrument handling are important.

Use Cases

• Place, adjust, or remove ear dressing material during ENT procedures.
• Handle small dressing materials in narrow or recessed working areas using the 65.0 mm working length.
• Use the bayonet profile when maintaining a clear visual path to the working area is important.
• Support general surgery workflows requiring focused manipulation of small dressing materials.
• Use the straight oval cup jaws for controlled contact with dressing material.
