Hemostatic clamps are surgical instruments used to control bleeding during medical procedures. They work by clamping blood vessels or tissues to stop blood flow, allowing surgeons to operate more safely. These clamps come in various sizes and designs, tailored for different surgical needs. Typically made of stainless steel, hemostatic clamps are reusable and can be sterilized for multiple uses. They are essential tools in surgeries, such as those involving the heart, liver, or kidneys, where precise control of blood flow is crucial for patient safety and successful outcomes.
