Schroeder Tenaculum Forceps: Design and Supply
The schroeder tenaculum forceps sits in Sklar's forceps line, in the Econo Sterile Floor Grade range. This instrument is a ratcheted, finger ring instrument commonly used in OB/GYN procedures involving maipulation of the cervix or uterus, most commonly D&C, and vaginal or abdominal hysterectomy. They are also used to grasp, hold, and move vessels and arteries during surgical procedures. It is made of stainless steel.
