Periosteal Elevator 8″ Straight 14mm Sharp Edge Phenolic Handle | SAG Surgical

Description

Periosteal elevators are essential surgical instruments used to lift and separate the periosteum (the fibrous membrane covering bone surfaces) from the underlying cortical bone during surgical procedures . The SAG Surgical periosteal elevator (8 Inches) features a straight 14mm sharp edge with a phenolic handle, engineered for precise subperiosteal dissection during orthopedic, dental, and maxillofacial surgeries.

This periosteal elevator is uniquely crafted with a sharp, straight blade that cleanly releases periosteum from the cortical bone surface without maceration . The 14mm blade width on this periosteal elevator provides optimal tissue coverage for efficient periosteal stripping in one smooth pass. The 8-inch overall length of this periosteal elevator offers excellent reach and control for deep surgical access.

The periosteal elevator features a phenolic handle that provides superior grip, thermal insulation, and impact absorption during repetitive mallet strikes . This ergonomic handle on the periosteal elevator reduces hand fatigue during prolonged procedures while maintaining a secure, non-slip grip .

Periosteal elevators assist surgeons in exposing bone surfaces for fracture fixation, bone grafting, implant placement, and joint replacement procedures . The straight blade design of this periosteal elevator is particularly suited for accessing flat bone surfaces where precise, controlled elevation is required .

Periosteal elevators are designed with the surgeon’s needs in mind. The sharp edge on this periosteal elevator allows for clean penetration of the periosteal layer, creating space for tissue retraction during surgery. The satin finish on this periosteal elevator reduces glare in the surgical field, enhancing visibility .

Periosteal elevators are manufactured to the highest standards using premium stainless steel . This ensures that every periosteal elevator instrument maintains its shape and functionality even after repeated sterilization cycles. These periosteal elevators are reusable and can be sterilized using moist heat or steam sterilization .

Periosteal elevators are used across multiple medical specialties including orthopedics, trauma surgery, dental surgery, and veterinary medicine . The 8-inch size of this periosteal elevator makes it suitable for a variety of surgical procedures requiring periosteal elevation along straight bone surfaces.

SAG Surgical takes pride in offering premium periosteal elevators that meet the demanding requirements of modern orthopedic surgery. Every periosteal elevator undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure consistent performance.
