Surgical Incision Wound Protector Retractor

Surgical Incision Wound Protector Retractor

A surgical incision wound protector and retractor: a plastic ring and sleeve set that holds an incision open and shields its edges.

Typical use

Placed in an abdominal incision, the inner ring sits inside the body while the sleeve lines the wound and the outer ring is rolled to keep it open. This gives the surgeon a clear view and keeps the wound edges away from contamination and from instruments.

Before you order

Choose the size by incision depth and length, and check the range of sizes supplied in the pack. Confirm it is sterile and single-use, and ask about the ring materials and how the sleeve is tightened to hold the wound open.
