6" Hohmann Retractor 15mm blade

Controlled Retraction for Surgical Access and Visualization

The 6" Hohmann Retractor with a 15mm blade is a hand-held surgical instrument used to help retract tissue and maintain access within an operative field. Its Hohmann-style profile supports focused placement where a defined blade width and manageable overall length are useful for controlled exposure. In general surgery, it can assist with maintaining a clear working area during procedures requiring tissue retraction. In orthopedic settings, it may support access around operative sites while helping keep the instrument’s handling predictable within the surgical workflow. The compact 6" format is suited to tasks requiring close, deliberate instrument positioning.

Use Cases

• Retracting tissue to help maintain access and visualization within a general surgery operative field.
• Supporting focused retraction during orthopedic procedures where a 15mm blade is appropriate to the task.
• Positioning a hand-held retractor around an operative site when controlled, localized tissue displacement is required.
• Using a defined blade width to help maintain a consistent retraction point during surgical handling.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the instrument according to facility procedures and the applicable manufacturer instructions.
• Inspect the 15mm blade and overall instrument before and after use for visible soil, damage, or deformation.
• Handle the blade carefully during transport, cleaning, and storage to help protect its working surface.
• Store the retractor in a manner that prevents contact damage and supports orderly instrument handling.

General use; follow facility protocols.
