Opis
(Thumb Forceps) Commonly held between the thumb and two or three fingers of one hand. Spring tension at one end holds the grasping ends apart until pressure is applied.
Used to facilitate grasping, manipulation, compression or joining of tissue and ligature. It typically has two main designs:
- samozadržavajući dizajn sličan škarama s ručkama prstena i radnim krajem koji ima različite dizajne noževa, npr. ravni, pod kutom ili zakrivljen paralelnim žljebovima ili nazubljenjem kako bi se osiguralo prianjanje,
- a tweezers-like design (may be a micro/fine instrument) with two conjoined blades with serrated tips at the working end.
