Kelso & Kincsem Surgicals

The Applied Medical Alexis Wound Protector/Retractor (C8322) is a sterile, single-use surgical device, specifically the extra-small (XS) short model, engineered for incisions between 2 to 4 cm with a 13 cm sheath length. This device provides 360° atraumatic retraction and wound protection by using a flexible plastic sheath with two rings, one positioned internally and the other externally, to shield the incision. This design not only maximizes surgical exposure and eliminates point trauma, but also creates a physical barrier to reduce the risk of surgical site infections (SSI) by preventing contamination from skin flora. The device's hands-free retraction and ability to maintain moisture at the incision site make it a versatile tool for various open surgical procedures, including general, colorectal, and breast surgeries
