How it is used
Artery forceps control bleeding by clamping a cut vessel until it is tied off or sealed. The surgeon places the jaws across the vessel and closes the handles until the ratchet engages; the lock holds the clamp shut, so several forceps can be left in place while the operation continues. The curved jaws let the tip reach around tissue and into confined spaces while the handles stay out of the line of sight.
Kelly forceps are also used to guide and insert surgical drains and to hold a gauze compress used as a tampon to pack a bleeding area.
