19 cm, 7 ½”
The 08-281-19 from Next Edge Surgical LLC is another Strandell-Stille Retractor, with the product page specifying an overall length of 19 cm, or 7½ inches. Its purpose is practical rather than complicated: the instrument provides a means of manually holding suitable tissue away from the operative area when surgical exposure needs to be maintained.
A Strandell-Stille pattern can be useful in instrument sets where the surgical team needs a dedicated hand retractor for positioning tissue during open procedures. Rather than relying on a generalized instrument, the pattern gives the operating team a recognizable configuration for manual exposure. The 19 cm length also provides a useful balance between reach and direct control.
When selecting aretractor for a surgical inventory, size is more than a catalogue number. It influences how the instrument can be positioned and how easily the operator can work around the operative field. This model is listed specifically at 19 cm, giving procurement teams a clear dimensional reference when organizing instruments by size.
Product considerations:
* Pattern: Strandell-Stille Retractor.
* Length: 19 cm, or 7½ inches.
* Primary role: Manual tissue retraction and maintenance of operative exposure.
* Configuration: Intended for direct positioning by the user.
* Clinical inventory: Appropriate where the Strandell-Stille pattern is specified.
The available product information does not identify a particular blade profile, material, surface treatment, sterilization cycle, or named surgical specialty. Those specifications should therefore be verified with Next Edge Surgical LLC when they are required for purchasing decisions.
For facilities that need a clearly identified Strandell-Stille pattern, this instrument provides a useful addition to the retraction set.
