GERSTER-LOWMAN BONE HOLDING CLAMP
GERSTER-LOWMAN BONE HOLDING CLAMP
The Medlene® Gerster-Lowman Bone Holding Clamp is used by orthopedic surgeons to align fractured bones while plates and screws are placed.
- Ergonomic Design For Non-Slip Clamps.
- Slender Shafts To Reach Deep Spaces.
- Premium Grade Stainless Steel For Reliable Service.
Medlene® Gerster-Lowman Bone Holding Clamps enable doctors to repair bone fractures properly and prevent bad unions. Surgeons place the clamp on segments of bones to fix them in place as they place pins and screws. This facilitates aligning the proximal and distal segments of the bone so that the fracture heals correctly.
Therefore, we designed the device with a long profile to increase its reach to deep tissues. The screw wheel in the handle allows you to modify the distance between the jaws easily.
The Medlene® Gerster-Lowman Clamp has three jaws with claw-like profiles to stabilize the bone firmly. We designed their curves to accommodate large and small bone diameters. In addition, they have blunt outer surfaces to prevent damage to surrounding tissues.
You can tighten the handle’s screw to hold and stabilize the bone properly. In addition, the device has a slender profile so you can see the working jaws.
We make the Medlene® Gerster-Lowman Bone Holding Clamps for different fractures. They are available with three sizes ranging from 18 cm to 22 cm long.
We also offer other devices like the Kirschner Extension Bows to make traction systems that fit a wide variety of approaches. You can use these tools to suit every patient’s needs.
