“A” or “V” Pattern?
The “V” pattern is the all-purpose clamp, used on all veins, and almost all arteries. The “A” pattern, available in all sizes, is designed for exceptionally thick-walled vessels and slippery arteries. The slight incurve of the tips of the “A” pattern jaw provides extra security against slippage.

PRESSURE TESTER GAUGE
ACLAND CLAMP PRESSURE TESTER GAUGE
Ensuring your Acland Micro Vessel Clamps are applying the correct pressure onto delicate vessels is an essential consideration for successful anastomosis.
Each size of vessel clamp has its own validated pressure parameters carefully calibrated to the vessel size the clamp is designed to be used on.
This pressure can often vary depending on the age of the clamp and the amount of use.
Vessels can suffer damage if the clamp is applying too much pressure.
Equally if not sufficient pressure is applied then the vessel is not completely occluded resulting in a difficult anastomosis of the vessel with the vessel leaking blood obscuring the operating field.
An annual audit of Acland Micro clamps is recommended to test the pressures thus preventing incidents with non-conforming clamps considered good practice for Microsurgery sets.
Clamp is applied between two sensors on the Clamp Gauge where the applied pressure/force can then be accurately calculated.
VISIBILITY BACKGROUND MATERIAL
TO ASSIST IN VISUALISING MICRO VESSELS DURING ANASTOMOSIS
Description: Silicon strip with 1mm grid on one side and plain on reverse side, available in blue, green and yellow colours. Packed in boxes of 12 pieces.
Application: For use in micro surgical anastomosis of micro vessels under a microscope to allow the surgeon to better visualise the detail of the vessels, being joined.
The Visibility Material can be used either with the grid side up to give the surgeon a scale of the vessel, alternatively the reverse plain side can also be used.
Th e materia l ha s a non e reflectiv e surfac e eliminating distractions from theatre lighting and has a non-tacky finish to aid mobilisation of the Vessel.

ARTERIOTOMY CLAMP
The Acland-Banis Arteriotomy Clamp was developed to ovecome the difficulties of creating a hole in the side of a vessel, in an end - to - side anastomosis. The device enables the surgeon to make an arteriotomy with an instrument that cuts the vessel the best -- a knife. The arteriotomy clamp picks up and holds the piece of the vessel wall that is to be excised. Then, with a single curving sweep of a straight blade that is held close against the clamp tip, the ellipse is excised. The result is a perfect arteriotomy, every time.
The clamp is a precision- made, cross - action forceps with a heavy closing pressure and a tapered, rounded, fenestrated tip. The hole in the tip is important because the tissue that is picked up can squeeze into it and be held firmly. There are three sizes of clamps, with tips 1.2, 1.8 and 2.4mm in diameter. Each clamp can cut a different size hole, depending on the depth of the tissue being picked up. Using the set of three clamps, holes can be cut with mean diameter ranging from 1 to 5mm.
USING THE CLAMP
1. Mobilise the vessel so that it can be rotated freely.
2. Apply occluding clamps, keeping the vessel at its natural state of resting tension.
3. Empty the occluded segment by finger pressure while momentarily releasing one clamp.
4. Remove adventitia thoroughly and widely around the planned arteriotomy site.
5. Rotate the vessel so that the site of arteriotomy is seen in clear profile.
6. Have the small vessel in view, with its end prepared and dilated, in order to judge its size.
7. With an arteriotomy clamp of appropriate size, carefully pick up a piece of vessel wall which is half as long and just as wide as the desired arteriotomy.
Arteriotomy Clamp
● Hole size in the tip 1.2mm Ø
ART -12
Arteriotomy Clamp
● Hole size in the tip 1.8mm Ø
ART -18
Arteriotomy Clamp
● Hole size in the tip 2.4mm Ø i iii
ART - 24
Note that because of the pressure which the tip of the clamp exerts, this step is irreversible.
8. With a CBS-35 blade held in metal - to- metal contact with the clamp tip, cut around the tip with a steady sweeping action.
Important!
With practiced use, the size of arteriotomy results is highly predictable. However, we strongly recommend a brief initial practice period on animal or fresh cadaver vessels. These vessels should be stretched out to their natural length and tension to simulate real conditions. Remember that the arteriotomy will be twice as long and just as wide as the piece which is picked up and excised.
