Surgical Kocher Retractor – 08-366-23

The 08-366-23 Kocher Retractor is designed around a familiar requirement in surgery: keeping appropriate tissue away from the operative area while access is maintained. Next Edge Surgical LLC identifies this instrument as a Kocher Retractor and lists it under the Retractors category with SKU GRP-08-366-23.
Unlike a fixed exposure system, a handheld instrument can be repositioned whenever the surgical field changes. That makes manual control an important part of its practical role. The user can select the point of contact, adjust the direction of pull, and release or reposition the instrument when the next stage of the procedure calls for a different view.
For clinical inventory, the instrument offers several useful characteristics:
* Direct positioning: The user maintains control over where the instrument is placed during tissue exposure.
* Controlled retraction: The working end provides a defined point for moving suitable tissue away from the field.
* Pattern recognition: The Kocher designation gives operating-room personnel a clear reference when selecting instruments from a larger tray.
* Inventory utility: The product can complement other handheld surgical retractors when different patterns or configurations are required.
The product page does not provide a detailed material specification, sterilization claim, or specific anatomical indication. For that reason, processing should be based on the facility’s established protocols and any applicable manufacturer instructions rather than assumptions about reusable instrument characteristics.
For surgical centers, hospitals, clinics, and medical distributors, the 08-366-23 offers a clearly identified Kocher-pattern option for manual tissue exposure.
