Product Description

The Gosset Abdominal Retractor offers a self-retaining mechanism, so surgeons don’t need to hold the retractor manually. This feature allows for hands-free operation, so it improves surgical efficiency and reduces fatigue. Adjustable blades on the retractor cater to various surgical needs, so they provide flexibility and adaptability during procedures. This adjustability ensures that surgeons can customise the retractor to fit different patients and incision sizes.

Made of stainless steel, the Gosset Abdominal Retractor ensures durability and sterility, so it maintains a sterile environment crucial for surgery. The stainless steel construction also makes it easy to clean and sterilise, so it prevents infection. Its ergonomic design enhances comfort and control for surgeons, so it reduces the risk of hand strain and ensures precise retraction. This thoughtful design supports long surgeries by promoting surgeon endurance and accuracy.

Our Philosophy

Firstly, our philosophy is to challenge everything we do, be accountable for what we manufacture and continually improve. Furthermore, we supply stainless steel instruments that are manufactured in accordance with BS 5194. This ensures each instrument has the right composition, enabling it to serve its intended purpose effectively.

Finally, we select the highest grade steels, for the best long term value for our customers. As part of our ISO 9001 quality system, we ensure we have access to material mill certificates and also as part of our proactive objective quality assessment, we send off routine batches of material for 3rd Party testing and verification. This ensures our customers receive the instrument they ordered, manufactured from the correct steel, as per BS 5194.
