Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between curved and straight Mayo scissors?
Curved Mayo scissors have a blade that curves upward, which allows the surgeon to see the cutting edge more clearly during dissection and provides better access to deeper tissue planes. Straight Mayo scissors are used for cutting sutures and superficial tissue where a direct cutting angle is preferred. The choice between curved and straight depends on the specific procedural application and surgeon preference.

Can these scissors be autoclaved?
Yes. Stainless steel Mayo scissors are autoclavable and suitable for steam sterilization between uses. Follow your facility's instrument sterilization protocols for cycle parameters and packaging requirements.

How do I care for these scissors?
Clean instruments after each use with appropriate instrument cleaning solution, rinse thoroughly, and dry before sterilization or storage. Inspect the blade edges and box lock for wear or damage before each use. Lubricate the box lock periodically with instrument milk to maintain smooth operation.
