Why Surgical Teams Choose Aspen Secto Dissectors
Blunt dissection needs a tip soft enough for tissue and a shaft strong enough to work with, and the Secto design pairs sterile cotton with stainless steel for exactly that balance. X-ray detectability adds a safety check that plain gauze tips cannot offer.
- Atraumatic by Design – Cotton tips separate tissue gently, so dissection stays atraumatic through the case.
- Detectable if Miscounted – X-ray detectable cotton supports the end-of-case count if a dissector is unaccounted for.
- Pattern Range in One Line – Four patterns in single and dual tip styles cover the range from one stocked line.
