Richardson Retractor 3/4"x1" grip handle

Controlled Manual Retraction for Surgical Access

The Richardson Retractor 3/4"x1" grip handle is a manual surgical retractor used to help hold tissue aside and support access to the operative field. Its named grip-handle configuration provides a defined point for controlled hand positioning during retraction, helping the instrument fit naturally into established surgical workflows. In General Surgery, it can support exposure during open procedures where dependable manual retraction is needed. In Neurosurgery, it may be selected as part of an instrument set for carefully managed access and visualization. The 3/4" x 1" dimensions provide a clearly identified size option when matching retractors to procedural requirements.

Use Cases

• Support manual tissue retraction during open General Surgery procedures.
• Assist with maintaining access and visualization within the operative field.
• Provide a defined grip point for controlled positioning during retraction.
• Use as part of a Neurosurgery instrument set where manual retraction supports carefully managed access.
• Select the 3/4" x 1" size when the procedural setup calls for this identified retractor dimension.
