What are the main categories of surgical instruments?

We offer a comprehensive selection including:

  • Forceps: Artery, Dissecting, and Tissue Forceps

  • Retractors: For open surgery visibility

  • Scissors: Mayo, Metzenbaum, and more

  • Needle Holders: Various sizes and grips

All instruments are made using high-grade German stainless steel and meet international standards.

How are surgical instruments named?

Typically, instrument names reflect the inventor, area of application, and type. For instance, “Spencer Wells Artery Forceps” refers to:

  • Spencer Wells (surgeon/inventor)

  • Artery (application)

  • Forceps (instrument type)

What is the best way to clean and reprocess surgical instruments?

Always follow the manufacturer's care and cleaning guidelines along with local protocols like HTM 01-01. Proper cleaning, sterilization, and drying are essential to maintain instrument quality and longevity.

Is there a specific stainless steel for surgical instruments?

Yes, we use surgical-grade stainless steel, primarily in the 420 series, which provides strength, corrosion resistance, and durability — ideal for medical applications.

Why do surgical instruments rust?

Surgical instruments can rust if left wet or exposed to certain chemicals. Other causes include blood residue, poor water quality during cleaning, or improper sterilization. Our instruments undergo strict quality control to ensure proper passivation and resistance to corrosion.

Can laser marking affect instruments?

Yes, if not done properly. Laser marking can expose free iron, which may lead to rusting if not passivated correctly. At BusinessMed Instruments, we use safe and tested laser marking methods to avoid such issues.

What's the difference between monopolar and bipolar surgical instruments?

Monopolar instruments require a patient return electrode, and the current travels through the body — posing higher burn risks.
Bipolar instruments pass current only between the tips, offering more control and safety, especially in delicate procedures.
