Product Overview
Haight Baby Rib Spreader allows pediatric thoracic specialists to navigate fragile thoracic cavities and sustain stable operative access during delicate neonatal cardiorespiratory interventions. Featuring low-profile contoured blades and a calibrated rack-and-pinion track, it separates adjacent ribs smoothly, distributing spreading tension across cartilaginous borders to minimize periosteal trauma and prevent rib fractures throughout prolonged procedures.
Key Features:
• German stainless steel material provides corrosion-free strength
• Low-profile fenestrated blades fit snugly within small neonatal intercostal spaces
• Calibrated rack-and-pinion bar delivers controlled, non-slip lateral blade expansion
• Atraumatic blade edges distribute retraction pressure evenly across delicate ribs
Uses & Applications:
• Separating intercostal spaces during pediatric and neonatal thoracotomy procedures
• Exposing anterior mediastinal structures and heart vessels in congenital repairs
• Stabilizing thoracic cage margins during infant tracheoesophageal fistula interventions
