Bose Tracheal Retractor

The Bose Tracheal Retractor is a solid one-piece instrument, so its performance comes from blade geometry and handle ergonomics. The working blade is specified as Curved sharp hook blade contoured for tracheal ring engagement, which spreads retraction force over a wider contact area and reduces point pressure on tissue. The handle is flat ergonomic handle designed for steady directional counter-traction, giving a secure, fatigue-resistant grip through long exposures. An overall length of 15 cm (approx. 6 inches) keeps the surgeon's hand clear of the operative field. It is made from surgical-grade stainless steel (aisi 304/410) for glare-free, corrosion-resistant service.

The Bose Tracheal Retractor is used in emergency and elective tracheostomies to retract soft tissue, strap muscles, and the thyroid isthmus, and to hook the cricoid or tracheal cartilage for stable tube insertion.

It is indicated for elective open tracheostomy, percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy surgical cutdowns, cricothyroidotomy, emergency airway access, and tracheal trauma repair.

The instrument is forged from premium surgical-grade stainless steel with an anti-glare satin matte finish that eliminates optical reflections under surgical operating lights and headlights.
