ABSTRACT:
A vascular clamp for use in surgery has a body in the form of a tapering flexible envelope, with an inlet tube at the broader end. An external strip at the broader end provides a slot through which the tail of the envelope can be threaded after passing it around the vessel. The envelope is then inflated, e.g. by a syringe, to compress the vessel. A tap closes the inlet tube after inflation, and can be operated to partially deflate the envelope and so check for leaks of blood. The disclosure also includes a method of using the vascular clamp for occluding a blood vessel.
