Bulldog clamp

Definition

A manual surgical instrument with heavily serrated jaws at the working end designed to grasp, join, compress or support an organ, vessel or tissue. This instrument is typically made of high-grade stainless steel and comes in two main designs: 1) a flat, pincer-like design with jaws that close to a set opening and which have serrated finger grips or opposing handles at the proximal end which, when depressed by the operator, release the clamp; or 2) a self-retaining, scissors-like design with ring handles; both may have various straight, angled or curved blades at the working end. This is a reusable device.
