The lighted retractor is indicated for enhancing visibility to a surgical field through retraction of soft tissue and illumination of the surgical cavity. Radialux lighted retractors working though small incisions presents visualization challenges especially in deep surgical pockets. Fiber optic retractors facilitate visibility in difficult to see surgical cavities increasing exposure to tissue and providing optimal light with a variety of blades lengths widths and angles.

Lighted retractors bring shadowless low profile light into the cavity that can enhance visualization allowing surgeons to better navigate the entire space. The general term retractor usually describes a simple handheld steel tool possessing a curved hooked or angled blade and fitted with a comfortable handle that when in place maintains the desired. The three clear trac retractors the sp v and b for surgical pocket vaginal and breast illumination respectively use led lights that stay cool to the touch and don t affect the working space. Surgical trends toward less invasive approaches are not well served by traditional headlamps and overhead lighting which cast shadows in minimally open cavities.

This ready to use device eliminates the time and expense of reprocessing and reduces the risk of cross contamination in the surgical setting by making reusable devices and fiber optic light cables obsolete. The blade never gets hot. A retractor is a surgical instrument used to separate the edges of a surgical incision or wound or to hold back underlying organs and tissues so that body parts under the incision may be accessed. All include fiber optic light with the option of suction.

The radialux lighted retractor is a single use cordless illumination device for breast and open abdominal procedures. Illuminated surgical retractors include at least one retractor blade and a light delivery system. Full blade illumination for optimal surgical viewing. Compare to assi snowden pencer v.

Bright distal tip illumination provides excellent visualization of the vein the lumiview fiber optic retractor system converts traditionally hot xenon halogen light into cool directional uniform illumination. The retractor provides illumination to the surgical field independent of an external light source or fiber optic cables.
