• Pilling® Vascular Clamps
• Pediatric Clamps, Cooley-Type Jaw

Spring handle, 1 x 6 ratchets. These clamps are designed especially for surgery in infants and small children. They have specially set ratchets to permit gradual application and release of the clamps. Cooley-type Jaws. A double row of fine atraumatic teeth are arranged in opposing rows to grasp the vessel. The teardrop shape of the jaws allows for maximum length of divided vessel for suturing (as patent ductus arteriosus). Calibrations. Jaws are engraved at 5.0 mm intervals to facilitate accurate measurements. The calibration is on the outer sides of the jaws on cross clamps and on the anterior surface of partial occlusion clamps. The Cooley Clamps are all of the same general size and weight. Tension is carefully calculated to be in proportion to jaw length, shape and intended use. Length is approximately 4 1/4" (10.8 cm) to center of box-lock. Constructed of dull, non-glare finished stainless steel. Shafts or arms of Cooley Clamps are of three different shapes — straight, angled or curved as shown in diagram. Jaw shapes are varied as shown, and are calibrated starting from distal tip toward box-lock or from center point of jaw, proceeding in both directions.
