These blades are packaged in such a way as to facilitate storage and rapid identification during the preparation of surgical procedures. The quality of the materials used ensures a long life of the cutting edge, while the resistance to corrosion allows the properties of the blade to be kept intact even in humid environments. An indispensable product therefore for those seeking reliability and consistency in results in the operating room.

Therapeutic Indications

The TKM 21 Scalpel Blades are specifically indicated for the creation of precise and clean surgical incisions, essential for ensuring correct opening of the skin and subcutaneous tissues in various medical and surgical fields. Their application is recommended in general, dermatological, plastic, orthopaedic, dental and veterinary surgery operations, thanks to the versatility of the format and the sharpness of the cutting edge which allows for less trauma to the tissues involved.

They are the ideal alternative in cases where optimal control of the depth and direction of the cut is required, making the operator's task easier and helping to reduce intervention times. The use of TKM 21 blades helps minimize the risk of lacerations of the wound edges, ensuring optimal healing and simplifying the subsequent suturing phase. These blades are particularly recommended for precision incisions, skin biopsies, small outpatient procedures, but also in surgical practices that require delicacy and accuracy in the manipulation of soft tissues.

Thanks to the composition and surface treatment, the TKM 21 Scalpel Blades are also suitable for prolonged or repeated procedures, maintaining sharpness for the entire duration necessary for surgical practice without deformation or loss of effectiveness of the cutting edge. They are recommended in all situations in which hygiene, safety, handling and precision represent fundamental criteria, both in hospitals and in veterinary clinics, dental and beauty practices.

Composition

Main material: The TKM 21 Scalpel Blades are produced in high quality stainless steel, selected to combine mechanical resistance, elasticity and maintenance of a sharp edge for clean and precise incisions. The steel used undergoes thermal and chemical treatments which increase the life of the blade and its ability to resist sterilization processes and adverse environmental conditions (humidity, exposure to body fluids and medical detergents).

Each blade is subjected to precision technological processing, which guarantees a homogeneous notch of the cutting edge and an absence of microfractures, limiting the risk of splinters or breakages during interventions. Packaging takes place in a controlled atmosphere to ensure sterility until opening.

Excipients and other materials: The blades are wrapped in medical material which guarantees sterility and integrity until use. The case contains an easy opening system that allows the blade to be extracted without direct contact with the cutting surface, minimizing the risk of accidental events and promoting operator safety.

Contraindications

The use of TKM 21 Scalpel Blades is contraindicated in all cases in which there are known allergies or sensitivities to metals, in particular stainless steel. Do not use on patients with extensive inflammatory skin conditions in the incision area, which may increase the risk of infection or post-operative complications.

They are contraindicated for use on non-sterile materials or surfaces, or in procedures that do not guarantee due asepsis, to avoid cross-contamination between patients or operators. Do not use the blade if the protective packaging is damaged, open or compromised, as the sterility of the product cannot be guaranteed. Avoid reuse: the blades are designed for single use only, their reuse involves high risks of infection, loss of sharpness and possible fragmentation of the steel with additional dangers for the patient.

Incorrect use or rough assembly on unsuitable or defective handles can cause instability of the blade during cutting, increasing the risk of accidental injuries for both the operator and the patient. If you have any doubts about the patient's condition or correct use, consult a healthcare professional.

Safety of the drug for the species

The TKM 21 Scalpel Blades, being medical devices intended for surgical use, guarantee high safety standards for patients belonging to different species, both in human and veterinary medicine, provided that rigorous sterility protocols and correct use are respected. The stainless steel used minimizes the release of particles and the reaction to body fluids, reducing the possibility of adverse effects or accidental contamination.

To ensure safety, each blade must be handled only with suitable instruments and be securely mounted on its surgical handle. Improper use of the blade, excessive pressure when cutting or handling with hands not protected by gloves increase the risk of accidents and injuries for both the operator and the animal or patient. The structural integrity and resistance of the material ensure minimal breakage even in the event of prolonged tension, while still maintaining the flexibility necessary to adapt to different surgical needs.

These blades are also suitable for procedures on small, medium and large pets, as their standard size is suitable for multiple types of operations without compromising the safety or effectiveness of the operation.

Precautions

When using the TKM 21 Scalpel Blades, it is essential to take all the necessary precautions when handling the cutting devices: always wear sterile gloves, use tweezers or other tools to grip the blade during assembly and removal, avoiding directly touching the cutting part. Store the blades in a safe and dry place, respecting the conditions reported on the packaging to maintain sterility intact until use.

At the end of the operation, immediately dispose of the blade in the sharps container, according to current regulations regarding hazardous medical waste. Always keep surgical devices out of reach of children and unauthorized persons.

Do not use the blade on patients with a proven allergy to stainless steel and, in case of doubt, carry out a sensitivity test beforehand. Check the integrity of the packaging and the blade itself before use to avoid risks of contamination. At the first signs of wear of the wire, replace the blade to ensure efficiency and safety throughout the entire operating phase. It is also recommended to follow the internal protocols of the healthcare facility to ensure traceability of the device and storage conditions.

Method of administration

The TKM 21 Scalpel Blades must be carefully mounted on a scalpel handle of compatible size and secured using firm but delicate pressure, avoiding excessive twisting which could damage or tilt the blade. Before use, always make sure that the blade is positioned in a stable and safe manner to prevent slipping or misalignment during cutting.

Remove the blade from its sterile packaging just before use to prevent accidental contamination. Use only sterile instruments for handling and assembling the blade. During the surgical procedure, avoid sudden movements that could cause the blade to break or detach from the handle. After use, removal must be carried out with the same precautions by trained personnel, immediately placing the blade in the appropriate container for sharp objects.

Treatment program

The use of the TKM 21 Scalpel Blades varies depending on the type of surgery, the complexity of the procedure and the expected duration of the incision. In routine operations, it is sufficient to use one blade per patient, thus ensuring maximum sharpness and extreme cutting precision. In the case of particularly long procedures or those involving the processing of dense or resistant fabrics, it may be necessary to replace the blade several times during the same operation in order to guarantee the quality of the cut and prevent excessive efforts by the operator.

For each new surgical procedure it is mandatory to use a new sterile blade. Used blades should never be reused, even if apparently intact, as loss of sharpness could cause tissue damage and a high possibility of infection. Healthcare facilities must equip themselves with a sufficient number of blades to guarantee an adequate supply for the planned activity, thus facilitating timely replacement if necessary. Disposal must take place following the internal management plans for dangerous sharps medical waste.

Target species

The TKM 21 Scalpel Blades are universal devices suitable for use in humans and animals. They are particularly recommended for human medicine professionals (surgeons, dermatologists, dentists, beauticians), veterinary practices and specialized clinics, ensuring optimal results both in operations on adult and pediatric patients, and on small and large animals.
