Scissors
Areas of use and fields of application
Scissors are indispensable in numerous medical processes: from examinations and wound care to changing dressings and removing sutures to preparative or organizational activities. Special scissors for everyday clinical use cover both precise cutting procedures and robust applications such as material separation. The selection depends on the cut, tip (straight/curved) and teeth to ensure safe, controlled work processes.
Product types and typical designs
The scissors category includes a wide range of instruments with different shapes and functions. Important types are:
- Special scissors with straight or curved cutting edges for fine preparations
- Mayo and Metzenbaum scissors for surgical incisions
- Bandage scissors with rounded base for safe removal of bandages
- Couple and hairdressing scissors for organizational and hygienic activities
- Scissor types made from stainless steel or coated for improved durability
Material, workmanship quality and hygiene
High-quality scissors are characterized by corrosion-resistant materials such as stainless steel and precisely ground cutting edges. Features such as click-stop latches, adjustable screws and ergonomic handle designs increase durability and handling safety. Sterilization resistance (autoclave compatibility) and easy cleaning are central criteria for hygienic work processes.
Benefits in everyday work
Appropriately selected scissors optimize processes through precise cuts, reduce the risk of injury when removing material and make recurring operations easier. Ergonomic handle design minimizes fatigue during frequent use, while robust construction reduces maintenance requirements. Reliable scissors contribute to efficiency, safety and hygiene in various medical contexts.
Selection criteria
When choosing, the type of cut, blade length, tip shape, material quality and sterilization ability are crucial. Other aspects include balance, grip comfort and availability of suitable spare parts or services. An appropriate combination of instrument types ensures that the right scissors are available for every application.
