The Ragnell retractor is a handheld, double-ended surgical instrument used primarily in blepharoplasty-ophthalmic, orthopedic, and multiple surgical procedures. Here are some key points about the Ragnell retractor:

Purpose: Exposure: The Ragnell retractor is designed to hold the eyelids open, providing better visibility and access to the eye during surgeries such as cataract extraction or eyelid repair.

Stability: It helps maintain a stable field of view, allowing the surgeon to operate precisely without needing assistance to keep the eyelids apart.

Design-Shape: The Ragnell retractor typically features a flat, curved blade that conforms to the eyelid's anatomy, ensuring effective retraction without causing excessive pressure.

Variety: It may come in different sizes or configurations to accommodate various surgical needs and patient anatomies.

Considerations: Tissue Protection: To minimize trauma and discomfort, care should be taken to avoid excessive pressure on the eyelids and surrounding tissues.

Sterilization: As with all surgical instruments, proper sterilization before and after use is essential to prevent infection.

  • Material: Stainless Steel
  • Finish: Satin
  • Packing: Plain / Pouch / Kits
  • Sterility: Non Sterile

  • Recommended Sterilization Parameters: PRE-VAC Unwrapped Goods Cycle 5 minutes at 132° C/270° F. Dry Time: none recommended.

Wrapped Goods Cycle 5 minutes @ 132° C/270° F Dry Time: 5‐20 minutes*

  • Recommended Gravity. Unwrapped Goods Cycle 10 minutes @ 132° C/270° F Dry time: none recommended. Wrapped Goods Cycle 30 Minutes @ 132° C/270° F Dry Time: per facility recommendation.

All surgical instruments and parts should be steam autoclaved when time permits. However, flash sterilization may be used when there is an immediate need for an instrument, injector, or accessory and there is no other alternative.
  • Aeration: As required to return to room temperature or to start the next cycle.
  • Contraindication: Hospital policy and procedure(s) take precedence over this protocol. Failure to use approved cleaning and sterilization procedures may void the warranty.
  • Cleaning
 Instructions: Cleaning: All instruments must be cleaned to remove contaminated substances before sterilization. After each use, perform an initial cleaning within the sterile field by wiping the tool or instrument free of blood and body fluids. Then clean the instrument thoroughly with a mild soapy solution. Do not use alkaline-based cleaners. Complete preparation for sterilization by hospital procedure using an approved cleaning agent. Do not run any type of abrasive materials or steel brushes through the lumen of the tool. The abrasive material can score the inside of the tool, rendering them inefficient. After flushing, the instrument needs to be well-rinsed with warm to hot water. Visually inspect each instrument to ensure all fatty deposits are removed. All instruments should be cleaned and rinsed with mild, non-abrasive, grease-removing cleaners before they are sterilized. Gulmaher Instruments recommends that during the cleaning and rinsing procedures, all instruments should be inspected. Ultrasonic cleaning after manual cleaning is recommended.
