Krayenbuehl nerve hook 7 1/4" small angled 2.0mm long blunt tip round handle with finger rest

Controlled Access for Precise Nerve Handling

The Krayenbuehl nerve hook is a surgical hook designed for controlled nerve handling, retraction, and identification during open procedures. Its 7 1/4-inch length supports access beyond the immediate incision, while the small, angled 2.0 mm blunt tip helps the user approach structures with a defined point of contact. The round handle and finger rest support deliberate positioning and handling during intricate work. Suitable for general surgery and neurosurgery applications, this instrument provides a focused option for workflows that require reach, directional control, and a blunt-ended hook profile.

Use Cases

• Use for controlled nerve identification or gentle retraction during general surgery procedures.
• Support neurosurgical workflows requiring a long, angled hook for access within a confined operative field.
• Use the small 2.0 mm blunt tip when a focused hook profile is needed for positioning around neural structures.
• Apply the angled configuration to approach structures from a more suitable working direction.
• Use the round handle with finger rest to support deliberate instrument positioning during detailed tasks.

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the instrument according to facility protocols and the applicable manufacturer instructions for use.
• Inspect the blunt tip, angled working end, handle, and finger rest for damage, deformation, or residue before use.
• Handle the hook carefully to preserve the defined tip shape and avoid contact with other instruments that could cause damage.
• Store in a manner that protects the hook tip and prevents bending or impact.

General use; follow facility protocols.
