Dressing/utility forceps, scissors-like, single-use are handheld surgical tools designed to assist in procedures by securely grasping sponges, dressings, or other instruments without cutting. Their scissors-like shape with ring handles and non-cutting blades makes them versatile for general surgical use, often tailored for specific anatomical applications.
These devices are typically single-use, meaning they are intended for one-time use only to maintain sterility and reduce infection risks. Regulation and classification vary by jurisdiction, but they are generally considered medical devices and must comply with local safety and performance standards before market entry.
