Disposable Safety Scalpel

The danger of incised and punctured wounds is often underestimated. Many health professionals believe that small injuries of this type are not serious and do not have major consequences, but the health risks to doctors and health workers in hospitals from these types of injuries must be taken into account.

It is estimated that in German hospitals these incised and punctured wounds from contaminated instruments are the cause of an average of 400 hepatitis B, 75 hepatitis C and 1 HIV infections per year among health workers. Aesculap's safety scalpels can reduce this risk.
