Thumb forceps are commonly held between the thumb andtwo or three fingers of one hand, with the top end resting onthe anatomical snuff box at the base of the thumb and indexfinger. Spring tension at one end holds the grasping ends apartuntil pressure is applied. This allows one to quickly and easily

grasp small objects or tissue to move and release it or to graspand hold tissue with easily variable pressure. Thumb forcepsare used to hold tissue in place when applying sutures, togently move tissues out of the way during exploratory surgeryand to move dressings or draping without using the hands or

fingers

A scalpel, or lancet, is a small and extremely sharp bladedinstrument used for surgery, anatomical dissection, andvarious arts and crafts (called a hobby knife)

Gripping a medical scalpel

1. Palmar gripAlso called the "dinner knife" grip. The handle is held with thesecond through fourth fingers and secured along the base of thethumb, with the index finger extended along the top rear of theblade and the thumb along the side of the handle. This grip is bestfor initial incisions and larger cuts.

2. Pencil gripBest used for more precise cuts with smaller blades (e.g. #15) andthe #7 handle. The scalpel is held with the tips of the first andsecond fingers and the tip of the thumb with the handle resting onthe fleshy base of the index finger and thumb. Care should betaken not to allow the handle to rest too far along the index finger

as this promotes an unstable grip and cramped fingers.

By allied health professionals such as occupationaltherapists, physiotherapists and orthotists, to immobilizean articulation (e.g. the knee) that can be freed while notstanding (e.g. during sleep).

By athletic trainers to immobilize an injured bone orjoint to facilitate safer transportation of the injuredperson.

By emergency room physicians to stabilize fractures
