INSTRUMENTS: OB TRAY IN DEPTH

[@shannonellis7862]

Thank you for the refresher....wanting to get back into OB scrubbing.

The structure that connects the Bladder blade is called the Balfour Self retaining retractor, it has 7 pieces that must all be accounted for.

What was the last forceps called? Is that one also known as Debakey?

[@rogerwilson7065]

Those are knife handles not needle holders.

[@cherryberry9979]

I thought I heard her say needle holder 🙄

[@SURGICALTECHGEEK]

I think I'm allowed to make mistakes lol. I think I was thinking ahead from loading blades to a knife handles to using a needle holders.

[@danielduncanmakiawa560]

The first ones you held were scapel blade holders. Just a correction. Love the content

[@SURGICALTECHGEEK]

soweeee

[@sofiap3571]

Thanks! great info.

[@danielapuche5006]

Love it!!

[@chrgav1286]

I don’t think that’s a kelly since kelly have half way serrations. That will be called Rochester pean/mayo clamp, different facilities will call it a different name.

[@SURGICALTECHGEEK]

I know it's a pean but doctors call everything Kelly's lol everything bigger than a hemostat is a Kelly to them. So when I hear peans, I know they're new lol 😆

[@chrgav1286]

@@SURGICALTECHGEEK really? I’m still training to be sterile processing and that would confuse the living crap out of me if surgeon calls them that.

[@SURGICALTECHGEEK]

@@chrgav1286 hahah yea they don't really know what they want sometimes. Sometimes they say something that don't make sense and you give them what they think they need and said oh yeah nvm yes this is what I want.

[@Capsule2]

I have a question. I want to do this as a career and my question is how do you guys tell the difference between every single one of them?

[@azadshahlal141]

Babcock is used in B/l tubal ligation (sos)..MAM...

[@sarahkin36]

*looks at what she called a Kelly and a hemostat* *looks at my textbook* *looks back at the Crile and the Mosquito Hemostat* *deep breaths* I hate how things have regional nicknames and things I get so confused, but someone please confirm that what she called a Kelly is a Crile

[@azadshahlal141]

Nice MAM THANKS....

[@danielsnyder1404]

What with all the scissors

[@fatemehnematiii]

it is very good❤❤❤❤🇮🇷

[@alyahpalomino8606]

For the knife handles did you call them needle holders?

[@SURGICALTECHGEEK]

My bad, I was thinking ahead. They're called knife handles and you use a needle drivers to load it.

[@astor78]

It’s all good. For the smaller knife handle that’s a number three it can hold blades 10 through 15. A number 10 blade is your standard blade use for incisions a number 15 looks like a number 10 but much smaller and use for fine cutting the number 11 blade is a spear tip i’ve seen this used in a variety of ways, but pretty much anything that needs to be punctured. The number 12 blade is hooked I have seen it used in ENT cases it’s used to cut tissue at weird angles with a scraping motion. The number 13 blade if I would compare it to pocket knives, it would be kind of shaped like a drop point blade. It’s not commonly used. I’ve probably seen it once or twice, I honestly can see a variety of ways it can be implemented not sure why it isn’t used often. And lastly, the blade that I’ve never used in my time as a surgical tech is the number 14 Blade it kinda looks rounded off It sort of resembles a bread, knife without serration. all of these types of blades 10 through 15 can be used on a number three knife handle, which is the smaller one in the video. larger handle is called the number 4. That pretty is seldom used. last time I’ve seen that used was during certain crash C-sections we need to cut open the skin quickly and make Deeper cuts. But most surgeons stick with the number 10 blade on a number three knife handle.

[@astor78]

I think you’re doing a great job with these videos because a lot of surgical technologist that are new really want to familiarize themselves with instrumentation and how to drape certain things and even though you go through it in clinicals, I think probably them most nerve-racking moment will be your first day on the real job and you’re expected to know a lot. You will get trained on hospital policies, but they expect you to know your core job role. Keep up with the videos and great job! ❤

[@paigetidwell6141]

:54 needle holder? those are knife handles...?

[@SURGICALTECHGEEK]

My mistake.

[@tiffanysanchez9799]
