2. NextEdge Surgical SKU 11-1314-16, Bone Holding
Forceps
Maintaining a reduced fracture fragment in the correct position often requires more than manual
control alone. The NextEdge Surgical 11-1314-16 Bone Holding Forceps provides a firm
mechanical grip for holding bone while fixation work is being carried out. Its design is suited to
situations in which the surgeon needs the fragment to remain stable while plates, screws, wires,
or other fixation components are positioned.
The forceps incorporates a locking mechanism that helps maintain the selected grip once the
jaws have been placed. This can be particularly useful during fracture reduction, reconstruction,
and other procedures where the surgeon needs both hands available for subsequent steps.
Its main working characteristics include:
● Serrated jaws: The textured jaw surfaces provide purchase on the bone and help limit
unwanted movement during manipulation.
● Locking action: Once engaged, the mechanism helps maintain the clamping position
without requiring continuous hand pressure.
● Firm construction: A substantial instrument body is appropriate for the mechanical
demands associated with bone reduction and stabilization.
● Controlled jaw placement: The forceps can be positioned around the intended
fragment before the locking mechanism is engaged, allowing the surgeon to establish
the desired relationship first.
For trauma and orthopedic teams, this instrument can simplify the transition from initial reduction
to fixation by maintaining the selected fragment position during hardware placement. It is a
practical addition to bone surgery instruments intended for fracture management and
reconstructive work.
Add this holding forceps to your orthopedic reduction set.
