Swann Morton mesjes met handle wegwerp steriel nr SC

Swann Morton sterile blades with handle 

Swann Morton sterile single-use scalpels, individually packaged in trays and packed in multiples of 10. The scalpel has a size scale on the back of the handle (for guidance only) to reflect our range of metal stainless steel handles and is marked with the CE symbol that previously only appeared on the outer packaging of the product. The sterile scalpels are individually packaged in a clear, thermoformed tray that offers better visibility of the product and is designed to help facilitate safe passing techniques. When the package is opened, the seal changes colour, indicating whether the integrity of the package has been compromised and assuring the user of sterility up to the point of use.

Single-use scalpels are considered a convenient alternative to the traditional blade attached to a metal handle, but do not offer the same feel and lateral stability when making incisions; therefore, they are usually used for minor procedures outside the operating theatre and on hospital wards. They can also be seen in the Emergency Department (ED), where time can be of the essence, especially in the treatment of severe trauma patients.

Single-use scalpels are increasingly appearing as an essential component of procedure trays and customised packaging, as well as within general practices and specialised community surgical centres, as more minor procedures are completed within the non-acute home care market and outside major hospitals.
