An artery clamp is a reusable surgical tool used to temporarily stop blood flow from an artery during operations. Its scissors-like design allows surgeons to securely grasp and compress vessels without causing damage, ensuring haemostasis while working on nearby tissues.
These devices are typically regulated as surgical instruments and must meet safety and performance standards for reusable medical tools. They are often supplied sterile-packed for single-use before first application, with specific sizing and insert materials tailored to different vascular procedures.
