SENN-GREEN RETRACTOR 20MM X 6MM

SENN-GREEN RETRACTOR • 20MM X 6MM • CE CLASS I • ISO 13485:2016

Large Double-Ended Retractor for Efficient Exposure in Extensive Surgical Fields

The SENN-GREEN Retractor with working dimensions of 20mm wide x 6mm deep is a Class I medical device manufactured according to ISO 13485:2016. This large version of the classic double-ended retractor is specifically designed for broad and powerful retraction of skin, subcutaneous tissue, and muscle in large surgical approaches where standard-sized instruments are insufficient.

Product Highlights:

✔ Certified according to ISO 13485:2016
✔ CE marking Class I (Regulation (EU) 2017/745 - MDR)
✔ Large double-hook design with two sturdy ends for large wound areas
➤ Extra-wide, flat blade (20mm x 6mm) for maximum surface area retraction
➤ Sharp-curved blade for precise, deeper retraction or manipulation
✔ Precision-forged from high-grade stainless steel 1.4301/316L
✔ Matte, non-reflective finish for optimal visibility
✔ Reinforced, ergonomic central handle for secure handling and improved leverage
✔ Autoclavable and reusable

Benefits of the Large SENN-GREEN Retractor:

• Efficient Surface Retraction: The extra-wide 20mm blade covers a large wound area, reducing the number of retractors needed and improving overall visibility.
• Robust Construction for Large Approaches: Particularly suited for laparotomy-based procedures, large soft tissue defects, or orthopaedic reconstructions requiring extensive exposure.
• Two-in-One Functionality: One instrument provides both broad surface retraction and precise deep tissue work – quickly interchangeable by a simple rotation.
• Tissue-Sparing through Pressure Distribution: The large contact area distributes pressure evenly, minimizing the risk of pressure necrosis or tissue trauma.
• OR Time Efficiency: Its size enables faster and more effective exposure of deeper anatomical layers.

Technical Specifications:

• Model: SENN Retractor, Large Size (Large Senn Retractor)
• Working Dimensions (flat blade): Width 20mm × Depth 6mm
• Design: Double-ended retractor with two curved blades (extra-wide & sharp)
• Material: Surgical Stainless Steel 1.4301 / 316L
• Surface: Matte/Satin (non-reflective)
• Sterilisation: Autoclavable up to 138°C (steam sterilisation)
• Risk Class: I according to Regulation (EU) 2017/745 (MDR)

Fields of Application:

• General & Visceral Surgery: Retraction in large laparotomies (e.g., hemicolectomy, gastrectomy), large incisional hernias, or extensive soft tissue defects.
• Orthopaedics & Trauma: Exposure in major joint replacement surgery (hip, knee), revision surgery, or management of extensive open fractures.
• Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery: Broad retraction during flap elevation (e.g., latissimus dorsi flap), large excisions, or debridements.
• Gynaecological Oncology: Exposure in radical hysterectomies or large tumour resections in the pelvis.
• Thoracic Surgery: Retraction in thoracotomies or large chest wall approaches.

Important Safety Instructions:
• FOR USE BY SURGICAL PROFESSIONALS ONLY.
• Due to its size and leverage, special care is required to avoid excessive tissue tension.
➤ Caution with the sharp end: Always guide under direct vision to avoid unintended injury to deeper structures.
• Inspect for structural integrity and damage before each use.
• Not intended for small or superficial approaches – the standard size (10mm) is more suitable for these.
• For reuse, strictly adhere to current reprocessing guidelines.
