Spine Hand Held Retractors

Spine Hand Held Retractors Instruments

Hand-held retractors are surgical instruments used to retract, expose or hold back tissue, muscle, organs or bone. Holding back incisions and organs helps surgeons expose and access the surgery site. Retractors also protect organs from accidental injury. These single-piece devices require constant holding during general and orthopedic surgical procedures because they have no locking mechanism to keep them in place.

gSource hand-held retractors are manufactured from high-quality, high-tensile and corrosion-resistant U.S. or German surgical stainless steel. We have a wide selection of retractor surgery instruments, with many device lengths, blade widths, serrations and other options available. Each retractor is suited to a specific body part or surgical area. For example, small retractors hold back skin and tissue. Larger retractors retract the muscles, organs and bones.

Benefits of Hand-Held Retractors

These tools offer several advantages over other types of retractors, including:

  • Since hand-held retractors are held during surgery, they are designed for comfortable holding and moving with a single hand.

Surgeries often require the surgeon or nurse to reposition the retractor frequently to improve access to the surgical site. Where a self-retaining retractor must be unlocked, moved and locked again, a hand-held retractor can easily change to a new position.

Our Extensive Hand-Held Retractor Selection

We supply an extensive range of surgical retractors for various procedures. Our hand-held retractor selection includes:

Senn

Senn retractors are commonly used in bone, joint, thyroid gland and cosmetic surgeries. These L-shaped, double-ended tools mainly retract surface tissue but can also hold back heavy tissue with their three prongs.

Deaver

A Deaver retractor has a flat, curved blade that is ideal for retracting deep abdominal and chest incisions. We have Deaver hollow handle and Deaver thin handle retractors. Both tools can be used in various procedures, including gallbladder removal or cutting out the vagus nerve from the gastroesophageal junction.

Richardson

Richardson retractors are also used to hold open a chest or abdominal incision and in Cesarean sections. These tools can retract multiple layers of heavy tissue, maintaining a clear surgical site. We also offer the Richardson Eastman retractor, a double-edged version of the Richardson.

Ribbon

The Ribbon is a flexible hand-held retractor with rounded, blunt edges. These instruments are used for retracting deep wounds, and their malleable nature means they can be bent into various shapes. For that reason, Ribbon retractors allow surgeons to adapt the tools to fit their tissue retraction needs.

Meyerding

Meyerding retractors are ideal for spinal surgeries or laminectomy, a neurosurgical procedure. The instruments hold back muscle and tissue during these delicate operations. We also offer Meyerding finger retractors, which feature a single-ring handle for finger operation.

U.S. Army Navy

U.S. Army Navy retractors have a double-ended design with blunt, curved edges and a secure grip. These hand-held retractors hold shallow and superficial wounds. They gently lift the tissue and organs out of the way and can also expose layers of the skin during plastic surgery.

Hohmann

Hohmann retractors are essential orthopedic instruments often used in knee and hip surgeries. These surgical instruments retract soft tissue and expose the bones. We carry the Hohmann bent retractors with long handles for better diagnosis and Hohmann mini retractors with a narrow design.

Farabeuf

As one of the most versatile hand-held retractors, Farabeuf retractors are useful for a range of surgical procedures. They can grasp, retract and hold tissue during surgery. These instruments are used in dentistry to hold back the tongue, lips and cheeks for better access to the surgical area. They are also used in hernia repair and hand or wrist procedures.

Ways to Use Retractor Surgical Instruments

Retractors have many uses for surgeons based on the bodily structure and location of the surgical site. These instruments can:

  • Clamp and spread incisions to access deep sites.
  • Lift bodily structures to access the areas underneath.
  • Hold back organs to protect these structures while improving visibility.
    Expose wounds.
  • Retract skin, tissues, organs and bones.

Hand-held retractors are common for various surgeries, including:

  • Small bone and joint procedures
  • Hysterectomies
  • Cholecystectomy
  • Thyroidectomy
  • Hernia repair
  • Eye procedures
  • Spinal surgeries
