Classification of instruments Cutting and Dissecting Grasping and Holding Clamping and Occluding Exposing and Retracting Probing and Dilating Viewing Suctioning and Aspirating Suturing and Stapling Measuring Accessory Micro-instrumentation/
IMPORTANT TERMS Atraumatic : without trauma. Traumatic : Causing Injury by penetration or crushing. Dilation : Enlarging an opening in a progressive manner. Dissection : Process of separating tissues through anatomic planes by using sharp or blunt instrumentation. Grasping : Holding in a traumatic or atraumatic way. Retraction : stabilizing a tissue layer in a safe position for exposure of a part.
IMPORTANT TERMS Sharp : Instrument with a cutting edge or pointed tip ; that is used to cut or dissect tissue. blunt tips : the tip is not sharp Finger Ring : Place for the user to pace his finers Ratchet :( catch lock) Allows instruments to be locked in place.
