This makes the blades ideal for long incisions, such as an upper midline incision of the abdomen during the repair of a perforated gastric ulcer.

Fits a Number of Handles The Carbon Steel Scalpel Blades fit the following handles: 4, 4L, 4 Graduated and 6B. This lets you choose a handle according to your preferences and how you need to use the blades. Safe Handling of Swann Morton Blades The way you handle surgical blades prior to use can determine how effectively they perform during use.

There are a number of ways the cutting edge of a blade can become damaged once removed from its protective foil packet. You should follow these safety precautions to ensure the blade remains ideal for use: When removing a blade from protective packet, make sure it's not dropped into a metal bowl or container. This can reduce the initial keenness of the cutting edge even before it's fitted to the handle.

If you have to use forceps or needle holders to remove the blade from its protective packet, ensure you don't grip the blade across its cutting edge.
