Galea fixation hook 8 3/4" 2 sharp prongs 10.0mm spread

Controlled Reach for Secure Tissue Retraction and Fixation

The Galea fixation hook is a surgical hook designed to engage and hold tissue or material during controlled retraction and fixation tasks. Its 8 3/4-inch length provides useful reach when access around the operative field is limited, while two sharp prongs with a 10.0 mm spread support deliberate placement and handling. The configuration is suitable for workflow needs in General Surgery and Neurosurgery where a focused, stable point of engagement can help maintain exposure during instrument-assisted tasks. Its straightforward hook design supports familiar handling, positioning, and removal without adding unnecessary complexity to the surgical setup.

Use Cases

• Engage tissue or material with the two-prong tip during fixation and controlled retraction tasks.
• Use the 8 3/4-inch length when additional reach is helpful around the operative field.
• Support exposure and positioning workflows in General Surgery.
• Assist with focused tissue-handling and fixation tasks in Neurosurgery.
• Place or remove the hook deliberately using the 10.0 mm spread as a consistent reference for engagement.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the hook promptly after use according to facility procedures and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect both sharp prongs and the 10.0 mm spread for bending, damage, or deformation before handling and use.
• Handle the sharp tip carefully during cleaning, transport, and setup to reduce the risk of injury or instrument damage.
• Store the hook so the prongs are protected from contact with other instruments.

General use; follow facility protocols.
