An open-surgery ligation clip applier is a hand-held surgical instrument used to place small clips onto blood vessels or tubular structures during open procedures to control bleeding. It is designed for manual operation and delivers atraumatic clips that are not part of the device itself, serving a hemostatic function without applying aneurysm-specific clamps.
This device is reusable and intended for sterilization between uses. It is typically constructed of metal with flat, curved ends resembling forceps to grasp and deploy clips, and it does not include the implantable clips it applies.
