17cm, 6 3/4″
blunt
The FOMON Skin Hook, SKU 08-180-17, is a 17 cm, or 6 3/4 inch, model with a blunt working end. Next Edge Surgical LLC lists it within the Hooklet & Skin Hooks category. Its combination of moderate length and blunt configuration gives this instrument a distinct profile among skin hooks that use sharper working points.
A blunt hook can be selected when the surgical technique calls for a defined point of contact without the sharp tip associated with other skin-hook patterns. The 17 cm length provides useful reach while remaining practical for direct handling around the operative site.
What sets the FOMON model apart:
* 17 cm overall length: Provides a useful balance between reach and close-range manipulation.
* Blunt working end: Offers a non-sharp contact profile for appropriate tissue positioning.
* Skin hook configuration: Provides a focused option for localized exposure.
* Handheld control: Allows the operator to position the instrument according to the requirements of the field.
For facilities managing a varied surgical instrument inventory, having blunt and sharp patterns available can help teams select an instrument according to the procedure and technique rather than relying on a single hook style.
The FOMON pattern can also complement longer hooks when a moderate instrument length is preferred. Its distinct tip configuration makes it readily distinguishable from sharp skin-hook models during instrument selection.
Next Edge Surgical LLC supplies these retractors for professional healthcare environments. The 17 cm length and blunt working end make it a useful consideration when controlled tissue positioning calls for a non-sharp hook configuration.
Add the FOMON Skin Hook to procedure-specific inventory when its particular length and blunt profile match the surgical requirement.
