Designed for use in a wide range of surgical procedures, including orthopedic, thoracic, and spinal operations. Manufactured by Integra under the Miltex brand, this self-retaining retractor is used to hold open the sides of incisions, keeping skin and subcutaneous tissue out of the way. The deep prong design and hinged arms provide an extremely high degree of access and range of placement options, while the sharp points ensure a secure grip on the retracted tissue. Features a ratchet-lock mechanism to easily hold the retractor in exactly the desired position, and release once the procedure is completed or the retractor is no longer needed. This instrument is provided nonsterile and must be sterilized prior to use.
