SMI Surgical Blades are used during surgical procedures for cutting skin and tissues. They are made from carbon steel which provides an exact performance. These surgical blades lower drag and tissue trauma due to their special edge treatment. They also ensure consistent sharpness, and are sterile and available in a broad range of sizes.
Standard SMI-Spon 10 x 10 x 10 mm. Box with 32 pieces. SMI-Spon Gelatin Sponges are surgical hemostatic sponges made from highly purified first grade gelatin material. SMI-Spon is designed for use in various surgical procedures and quickly and effectively stops rapid bleeding. Reduces intraoperative bleeding and surgery time. When applied and used in proper amounts, SMI-Spon is completely absorbed in 3-4 weeks. SMI-Spon is biocompatible, non-pyrogenic and non-toxic. Products are gamma-sterilized and individually packed in ready-to-use blisters.
