ABSTRACT:
A radiopaque marked vascular clamp comprises a vascular clamp with a radiopaque string attached thereto. The clamp is a cross-action spring clamp constructed as a single-piece body. The clamp has first and second opposing elongated members. Each member has a proximal end, a mid-point and a distal end. Each member has a first section between its proximal end and a point just proximal of its mid-point, and a second section between a point just proximal of its mid-point and its distal end. The members are hinged to each other at their proximal ends. The first section of each member curves away from its opposing member along the first section, so that the proximal ends are relatively closer to each other and the points just proximal of the mid-points are relatively farther away from each other. The first and second members cross over each other at their mid-points. The second section of each member is formed with a jaw surface, so that the jaw surfaces are normally biased in clamping contact with each other and are urged away from each other by pressure applied to move the first sections toward each other. The radiopaque string is attached to the clamp and is sized and adapted to increase X-ray visibility of the clamp.
