Medline MDS1875400 O'Sullivan-O'Connor Abdominal Retractors Set w/ Three Blades

Medline MDS1875400 O'Sullivan-O'Connor Self-Retaining Abdominal Retractor Set

The Medline MDS1875400 is a high-performance, self-retaining retraction system specifically engineered for major abdominal and gynecologic surgery. The O’Sullivan-O’Connor pattern is renowned for its ability to provide a wide, circular surgical "well," allowing for unobstructed visualization of the pelvic floor and retroperitoneal structures. This set is anchored by a heavy-duty stainless steel frame and includes three interchangeable blunt-tip blades designed to provide powerful yet atraumatic retraction of the abdominal wall and viscera.

With a satin-finish to minimize glare under intense operating room lights, the MDS1875400 features a smooth-acting ratchet lock that ensures the blades remain exactly where the surgeon sets them. This eliminates the need for manual retraction by surgical assistants, reducing "crowding" at the incision site and allowing the primary surgeon greater freedom of movement during complex dissections.

Clinical & Operational Advantages

• Customizable Exposure: The three-blade configuration allows for asymmetrical retraction, which is vital when navigating the deep pelvic cavity or retracting the bladder during C-sections or hysterectomies.

• Atraumatic Tissue Protection: The broad, blunt-tipped blades distribute retraction pressure evenly across the tissue, significantly reducing the risk of postoperative fascial bruising or visceral trauma.

• Ergonomic Self-Retention: The secure ratchet mechanism provides "set-and-forget" reliability, decreasing hand fatigue for the surgical team and streamlining the workflow in long abdominal cases.

• High-Durability Build: Constructed to withstand the mechanical stresses of deep retraction and thousands of high-temperature sterilization cycles.

Condition

• Status: Limited Use – Excellent Condition.

• Functional Assessment: The ratchet mechanism is crisp and locks securely across all positions. The wingnuts and blade attachments are fluid with no mechanical "play."

• Cosmetic Status: This set presents in near-new condition. The stainless steel is bright and free of the heavy scuffing or pitting typically seen in older hospital inventory.

• Sterilization Note: This set is provided non-sterile. It must be professionally cleaned and autoclaved per your facility's validated General Surgery/Abdominal protocols prior to use.
