Major Orthopaedic Sets
We understand that ordering major orthopaedic instrument sets can often be a complex undertaking. Hospitals and surgical departments frequently have their own preferred instruments, brands and tray configurations, making standardisation a real challenge. To support you in making appropriate selections, we have drawn on our extensive experience and compiled a set of example lists that include the most commonly used instruments for major orthopaedic surgery.
These instrument sets are carefully designed to support complex interventions, from preparation through to closure. They include robust dissecting and tissue-handling instruments (scalpels, scissors, forceps), advanced retractors and bone-access tools (osteotomes, gouges, bone hooks, bone levers), dedicated haemostasis tools (artery forceps, hemostatic clamps), bone-resection and bone-preparation instruments (bone cutters, rongeurs, nibblers), and suturing instruments (needle holders and suture forceps) all selected with orthopaedic applications in mind.
