Description
Foerster Ballenger Sponge Forceps 240 mm
Foerster Sponge Forceps, which may also be known as Foerster-Ballenger Sponge Forceps, are used during surgical procedures to hold gauze squares that will absorb excess fluids and blood from the wound area . The ratcheted locking mechanism of these finger ring forceps securely grip the gauze and hold it in place. Foerster sponge forceps are often used in bariatric surgeries because of their longer length, and the curved version may be used for removing the placenta in OB/GYN procedures. This product is straight or curved with oval, fenestrated, serrated or smooth jaws tips and a length of 240 mm.
The Foerster Ballenger Sponge Forceps 240 mm are expertly crafted surgical instruments designed for atraumatic handling of sponges and tissues during a variety of medical procedures. Manufactured by NAZMED SMS, these forceps are widely trusted in gynecological, ENT, and general surgeries.
With a longer 240 mm shaft, these forceps are ideal for deep cavity access and effective sponge placement or removal without compromising control. The jaws are rounded and serrated, ensuring a gentle yet firm grip on sponges or delicate tissues. This design minimizes the risk of trauma during swabbing, packing, or manipulating soft tissue.
