Haemostatic forceps are hand-held surgical instruments used to clamp blood vessels and control bleeding during operative procedures. They feature a scissor-like design with ring handles and a self-retaining locking mechanism, allowing surgeons to maintain vessel occlusion without continuous manual pressure.
These devices are reusable instruments typically made from high-grade stainless steel, with serrated blades that provide a secure grip on tissue. They are supplied as non-sterile or sterile reusable tools and are subject to general surgical instrument regulations, requiring proper cleaning, disinfection, and sterilization between uses according to manufacturer instructions and institutional protocols.
