Iterson Tracheal Hook, Pointed, 16 cm

Iterson tracheal hook, 16 cm, with a sharp pointed tip. During tracheostomy the hook is placed under a tracheal ring to lift and steady the trachea, holding it up and forward while the surgeon makes the tracheal incision and inserts the tube.

The pointed tip engages the cartilage ring securely so the trachea does not slip as it is opened. The single hook leaves the field clear for the incision. German surgical-steel construction.
