ABSTRACT:
A universal pressure pad for femoral clamps capable of coupling with two or more clamps of different design is provided by a generally disc-shaped pad with a central joint or boss which has a cavity with an upper spherical ball socket and a lower conical socket. Therefore, an insertion element from a clamp having a ball socket snaps into the upper ball socket cavity to form a swiveling ball and socket combination. Similarly, an insertion element from an artery clamp which has a rigid conical pin is disposed through the spherical ball socket in the upper portion of the joint and extends into the lower frustoconical section of the cavity to provide a force fit with the pin.
