They are used to grasp, hold, and manipulate various tissues during surgery, allowing for precise dissection and positioning.
Suturing Assistance:
Kelly Forceps can assist in holding sutures or needles during the suturing process.
Foreign Body Removal:

Features of Max Plus Kelly Forceps
Premium Grade Stainless Steel:
Our Kelly Forceps are meticulously crafted from high-grade stainless steel, ensuring exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and the ability to withstand repeated sterilization cycles without compromising performance.
Precision Serrated Jaws:
The inner surfaces of the jaws are precisely serrated. These transverse serrations provide a firm, non-slip grip on blood vessels and tissues, minimizing the risk of slippage and ensuring optimal control.
Reliable Ratchet Locking Mechanism:
A critical feature of Kelly Forceps is the integrated ratchet locking mechanism near the finger rings. This mechanism allows the jaws to be securely clamped at various pressures, freeing the surgeon's hand for other tasks and maintaining constant pressure on the clamped area.
Ergonomic Finger Rings:
Designed for comfortable handling and reduced hand fatigue during prolonged procedures, the ergonomically shaped finger rings offer superior control and maneuverability.
Straight and Curved Variations:
Max Plus offers both straight and curved Kelly Forceps to cater to diverse surgical needs. Straight forceps are ideal for easily accessible vessels and tissues, while curved forceps are preferred for reaching deeper or more angled anatomical structures.
Satin Finish:
A fine satin finish reduces glare in the operating room, enhancing visibility and allowing surgeons to work with greater precision.
Types of Kelly Forceps
While generally categorized as hemostatic forceps, Kelly Forceps come in specific variations based on their jaw design and size:
Straight Kelly Forceps:
These have straight jaws and are typically used for clamping easily accessible blood vessels and tissues.
Curved Kelly Forceps:
Featuring gently curved jaws, these are essential for reaching and manipulating tissues or vessels in confined or angled anatomical areas.
Kelly PPIUCD Insertion Forceps:
A specialized variant designed specifically for the insertion and sometimes removal of Postpartum Intrauterine Contraceptive Devices (PPIUCDs) in gynecological procedures.
Rankin Kelly Forceps:
Used for handling and securing larger and fatty tissues during various surgical procedures.
