Description

- Measured Profile – 5-1/2 in overall length (140 mm) gives the surgical skin marker its working reach.
- Sterile Supply – Sterile as supplied, so it can be opened straight onto the field.
- Department Packaging – Supplied 50 per case, so replenishment of the surgical skin marker matches the department's own usage rate.
Surgical Skin Marker: Design and Supply
The surgical skin marker is part of the Sklar Instruments catalog, in the Sklar OR Grade range. This instrument is designed to allow the surgeon to conveniently demarcate selected surgical sites, prior to or during surgical procedures. This instrument is scrub resistant and non-smearing. It is made of plastic. Because it is sterile and disposable, it goes from the package to the field and is discarded after the case, which keeps turnover simple.
