Dockhorn retractor 8" 12.0mm x 40.0mm blade, finger ring handle

Controlled Retraction with Practical Finger-Ring Handling

The Dockhorn retractor is an 8-inch surgical retractor designed to hold tissue aside and support operative exposure during focused procedures. Its 12.0 mm x 40.0 mm blade provides a defined retraction surface, while the finger ring handle supports controlled positioning and adjustment during use. This configuration can fit workflow needs in General Surgery and Cardiovascular procedures where clear access and steady instrument handling are important. The compact format is suited to tasks requiring directed retraction rather than broad-field coverage, helping the surgical team maintain organized access while the instrument is positioned according to the procedure and facility technique.

Use Cases

• Retract tissue to help maintain a focused operative field during General Surgery procedures.
• Support directed exposure during Cardiovascular surgical workflows where a defined blade profile is appropriate.
• Use the finger ring handle to position and adjust the retractor during hands-on operative manipulation.
• Apply the 12.0 mm x 40.0 mm blade for localized retraction tasks requiring a compact contact area.

Care & Handling

• Inspect the blade and finger ring handle before and after use for visible soil, damage, distortion, or other issues that could affect handling.
• Handle the blade carefully during cleaning, transport, and storage to help protect its defined profile.
• Store the retractor in a manner that prevents contact damage and keeps it ready for the next procedure.
