This innovative Operating Board for small animal surgical work is constructed of 1.89 cm (3/4 in) thick, high performance acrylic resin and natural minerals, making it stain resistant, steam sterilizable and extremely durable.
Its non-porous working surface measures 20.3 x 29.2 cm (8 x 11-1/2 in) and has grooves running both its length and width for drainage or placement of the flushing line during surgery.
Four surgical rubber restraining straps can easily be adjusted to accommodate animals of various sizes by way of numerous hold-down slots located on the edges of the Board. A large central well facilitates ventral surface surgery once the port is implanted in the animal’s dorsal surface. A Right Angled Huber point flushing line enables the researcher to flush the catheter and monitor patency during surgery.
This Rodent Operating Board is supplied with four adjustable length, surgical rubber restraining straps. Needle not supplied. The Board weighs 1.7 kg (3-3/4 lb).
