ABSTRACT:
A vessel occluding loop 10 for occluding the flow of blood in a vessel 30 is disclosed. The loop 10 has an elongate body having an outer surface. The outer surface has a plurality of elongate engaging surfaces 11. The engaging surfaces 11 define a generally planar area of contact for contact with a blood vessel. The engaging surfaces have a first member 12, a second member 13, and third member 14 which form the preferably planar engaging surface. Depressed zones 18 and 19 are formed between the members, wherein the blood vessel may enter the depressed zones 18 and 19 when the loop is wrapped around the blood vessel 30, thereby increasing traction.
