Disposable Safety Scalpel

The traditional scalpel with a disposable blade is not without risk or safety: The attaching to or removing of the blade from the scalpel handle is a manual and rather cumbersome process, often resulting in injury. While there is an obvious risk to the nurse or doctor, the less obvious risk is that to the patient. If a nurse, surgeon or assistant is accidentally cut during the procedure, the patient is placed at significant risk.

Passing of a used scalpel with an exposed blade between a surgeon and theatre nurse is risky and any lapse in concentration can result in injury.  Blade protruding from sharps bins can also result in unnecessary injury. Mislaid or dropped scalpel blades place all healthcare workers at risks.

Disposable Safety Scalpel is designed to minimize possible injury to healthcare providers during and after the use.  When finished using the product, the protective shield can be blocked securely to eliminate possible reuse of the product. It protects everyone!
