Device typePylorus clamp: A hand-held manual surgical instrument intended for atraumatic compression of the pylorus (the lower muscular opening of the stomach) during a surgical procedure. It is typically made of high-grade stainless steel, is available in various sizes, and has a robust design, e.g., the working end will have strong blades that are flat and broad in profile so that they do not cause trauma to duodenal tissue. The blades are serrated with parallel grooves and/or serrations to provide grip and the handle is also robust to allow the required pressure to be applied by the surgeon. This is a reusable device.
