What are surgical tweezers?
Surgical tweezers are precision instruments used to grasp, manipulate or fix tissue during operations and other medical procedures. Unlike standard tweezers, surgical variants are optimised for specific applications, from gross handling to extremely delicate procedures. Within this category, they include anatomical tweezers and atraumatic tweezers, each with their own properties and applications.
Medical applications of surgical tweezers
Surgical forceps are widely used in fields such as general surgery, gynaecology, dermatology and emergency care. They are suitable for holding tissue, removing foreign objects, supporting sutures and applying dressings. Depending on the situation, a model with ribbed structure, an atraumatic design or just tweezers with teeth for firm grip is chosen.
Liber Medical supplies only disposable surgical forceps, designed for single use. These are sterile packed and immediately usable in any clinical or outpatient setting.
