32312 - Hammer, surgical
A metal surgical instrument comprising a handle, shaft and head. The handle is designed to fit into the palm of the hand and is usually round. This handle tapers distally into a shaft which terminates in a head. Hammer heads are usually cylindrical in shape although variations exist. Some hammer heads are fitted on one or both ends with a material, rubber or plastic, to absorb the shock of impact. Such instruments are often referred to as a mallet. Hammers are used in various surgical procedures to impart a force on, e.g. a prosthesis, pin, screw, plate or appliance.
