The Seletz Gelpi Retractor is a reusable surgical retractor designed for controlled exposure of the operative field. The Seletz-Gelpi pattern belongs to the self-retaining retractor family, allowing surgical tissue margins to be held apart while access to the working area is maintained.
The current Peak Surgicals model is identified as SKU PS-8869. It is manufactured from German stainless steel, includes a selectable Size option, and is available with satin, dull, or mirror finish choices for professional surgical use.
The Seletz-Gelpi design is an established self-retaining surgical retractor pattern. Unlike a continuously handheld retractor, a self-retaining design is intended to maintain the selected degree of surgical exposure after the retractor has been positioned and secured.
This configuration can help keep the operative field accessible while allowing the surgical team to work without continuously holding the retractor manually. The exact locking design and adjustment range of the Peak Surgicals PS-8869 should be confirmed if these details are required for a specific surgical set.
The primary function of the Seletz Gelpi Retractor is to separate and hold tissue margins during surgical procedures requiring maintained access to deeper structures.
The amount of opening and retraction should be selected according to the operative approach, anatomy, tissue condition, and surgeon preference. The current Peak Surgicals page does not state an exact maximum opening or spreading capacity.
The established Seletz-Gelpi pattern is distinguished from standard Gelpi retractors by its modified working configuration and longer curved shank profile. This provides a specialized retractor design for procedures where deeper or differently angled access is required.
The Peak Surgicals page does not provide exact shank length, curvature dimensions, blade depth, or working-end measurements for PS-8869. These specifications should therefore be confirmed before ordering when a particular configuration is required.
Seletz-Gelpi retractors are documented within neurological and spinal surgical instrument ranges. Their self-retaining configuration can be used where controlled exposure of a surgical incision or deeper operative field is required.
The exact spinal procedure, working depth, and retractor size required should be determined by the surgical team. Peak Surgicals does not specify a particular spinal level or procedure for PS-8869 on the current product page.
The current Peak Surgicals specification confirms German stainless steel construction. The metallic structure provides the rigidity required for a reusable surgical retractor and supports repeated professional handling.
The exact stainless-steel alloy grade is not stated on the current product page. Hospitals, surgical centers, distributors, and procurement teams requiring a particular material designation or supporting documentation should confirm that information before ordering.
Peak Surgicals specifically identifies the Seletz Gelpi Retractor as reusable. The instrument is intended for repeated professional use when properly cleaned, inspected, and reprocessed according to applicable manufacturer instructions and the healthcare facility's validated procedures.
Before reuse, the working ends, shanks, joint, locking components, and handles should be inspected for deformation, corrosion, restricted movement, misalignment, or other visible damage that could interfere with normal retraction.
The live Peak Surgicals storefront includes a Size selector for PS-8869, indicating that selectable configurations are available.
However, the exact size values are not exposed in the current product information. Buyers requiring a particular overall length, blade depth, working-end dimension, or opening capacity should confirm the selected configuration before ordering.
The current Peak Surgicals specification lists satin, dull, and mirror finish options. These provide different surface-finish choices for hospitals, surgical centers, distributors, and procurement teams matching an existing instrument inventory.
If a particular finish is required, the selected finish should be confirmed when placing the order.
Peak Surgicals lists the Seletz Gelpi Retractor for Operating Room and other professional surgical use. It can be incorporated into surgical retractor sets where a Seletz-Gelpi self-retaining pattern is required.
The appropriate size and working configuration should be selected according to the procedure and surgeon requirements rather than assuming dimensions from another manufacturer's Seletz-Gelpi retractor.
