ABSTRACT:
A guarded skin hook for surgical use during a standard operational procedure. The guarded skin hook prevents accidental or inadvertent cuts or nicks during the procedure, thereby protecting the surgeon, nurse or other health care provider as the skin hook is passed from one to another in the operating room or similar environment. The guard has a "feel" which enables the surgeon or nurse to grasp the guarded skin hook without taking his or her eyes away from the patient.
