Deaver Retractor

Deaver Retractor is a popular surgical device that allows surgeons to widen surgical incisions and hold the large organs contained inside the abdominal cavity during a wide range of general surgery procedures.

• Flat Curved Blade For Retracting Multiple Tissue Layers.
• Atraumatic Working Surface For Avoiding Local Injury.
• Ergonomic Flat Handle For Superior Control.

The Deaver Retractor is one of the favorite devices within the abdominal and chest surgery areas. It was named after the famous American surgeon John Blair Deaver.

The retractor has a very unique design and comes in different models. Also, all of them provide a wide range of surgical benefits.

Firstly, the retractor is entirely flat and the handle inmediately turns into a deep curved blade. As a result, the whole instrument resembles a question mark.

Moreover, this particular shape allows surgeons to hold heavy tissues, such as the liver, stomach and kidneys, away from the surgical field.

In addition, the flat handle has a bottom hook. Surgeons and assistants can use this hook for resting their fingers and avoid fatigue during lengthy procedures.

Lastly, all our Deaver Retractors are available in a wide range of working end sizes and widths, including a double ended pattern with dissimilar blades.
