Product Overview

What Is a Bi-Clamp Forceps?

A Bi-Clamp-type forceps is a bipolar electrosurgical clamping instrument designed to grasp and compress tissue between two conductive jaws. When connected to an approved electrosurgical generator through a compatible bipolar cable, energy passes between the jaw electrodes.

Depending on the exact instrument-generator system, the forceps is designed for:

Tissue Grasping

Tissue Compression

Bipolar Coagulation

Vessel Sealing

Controlled Handling

Clinical Notice & Safety Guidance

The product name alone does not establish a particular sealing diameter, generator mode or clinical application.

Bi-Clamp / B-Caliburn Details

Open-Surgery or Laparoscopic Instrument?

The published Bi-Clamp has a 200 mm working length but does not state a shaft diameter or compatible port. This creates an important classification question.

A 200 mm clamp may be intended for:

Open surgical access
Vaginal or transvaginal procedures
Limited-access surgery
Short-shaft minimally invasive applications
Laparoscopic use through a compatible port, if the shaft diameter permits it

Before positioning the product as laparoscopic, confirm:

Shaft diameter
Compatible trocar size
Insulated shaft length
Working length measured from the handle to the jaw
Rotation mechanism
Jaw opening after port insertion
Intended surgical approach

If it is not designed to pass through a laparoscopic trocar, the page should be moved or cross-listed under open-surgery bipolar instruments.

Product Comparison

Bi-Clamp vs Erbe BiClamp®

The Bharat Surgical product and the proprietary Erbe BiClamp® system should not be treated as automatically equivalent.

Erbe describes its BiClamp® technology as part of a system involving:

Specific BiClamp® instruments
Defined jaw-contact pressure
Dedicated generator modes
Dynamic energy adaptation
Continuous tissue-state monitoring
Approved Erbe electrosurgical platforms

Erbe’s published performance data applies only to the exact Erbe instruments and compatible generators identified in its documentation. See Erbe’s official BiClamp LAP information and VIO vessel-sealing platform information.

Bharat Surgical must conduct or document its own compatibility and performance validation. Third-party claims such as a 7 mm vessel capacity must not be copied to the Bharat product.

Bi-Clamp / B-Caliburn Details

Does the Bharat Bi-Clamp Seal Vessels?

The listing describes tissue sealing and coagulation as applications. However, it does not publish:

Maximum vessel diameter
Seal-burst-pressure testing
Tissue-bundle limitation
Compatible sealing algorithm
Approved generator mode
Seal-completion feedback
Required activation time
Maximum rated voltage

Therefore, the website should not claim that the product seals vessels of a specific diameter until documented test data and system compatibility are available.

Bi-Clamp / B-Caliburn Details

Generator and Cable Compatibility

The complete connection path should be verified:

Electrosurgical generator
Approved bipolar or vessel-sealing mode
Generator-side cable connector
Compatible bipolar cable
Storz-type instrument connector
Bi-Clamp jaws

For every enquiry, obtain:

Generator manufacturer
Exact generator model
Available bipolar or sealing modes
Generator output-socket photograph
Existing cable code
Generator-side plug
Instrument-side connector
Cable voltage rating
Instrument maximum rated voltage
Footswitch or automatic activation requirement
Required seal-completion feedback
Intended open or laparoscopic use

Compatibility Advisory: The catalogue entry “compatible with other ESU” is too broad to establish compatibility with a particular generator.

Bi-Clamp / B-Caliburn Details

Is a Storz-Type Connector Universal?

No. “Storz type” describes the listed instrument-side connector, but several factors still need confirmation:

Connector dimensions
Pin spacing
Electrical contacts
Cable wiring
Insulation rating
Generator-side connection
Maximum voltage
Approved energy mode
Generator manufacturer’s accessory requirements

A connector that physically fits may still be electrically or functionally unsuitable.

Bi-Clamp / B-Caliburn Details

Jaw Opening and Clamping Mechanism

The published maximum jaw opening is 15 mm. Buyers should also request:

Jaw length
Jaw width
Electrode length
Tip profile
Inner-jaw serration
Jaw closing pressure
Ratchet positions
Single- or double-action movement
Conductive and insulated surfaces
Hinge configuration
Permitted tissue thickness

The 15 mm jaw-opening value describes the mechanical opening and does not indicate a 15 mm vessel-sealing capacity.

Bi-Clamp / B-Caliburn Details

Straight-Jaw Configuration

Straight jaws provide a direct working profile. Before ordering, request a clear jaw photograph or drawing to confirm:

Blunt or pointed tip
Smooth or serrated surface
Atraumatic profile
Electrode area
Jaw curvature
Jaw length
Closing alignment
Presence of a blade channel
Coating or surface treatment

A product name alone is insufficient for comparing instruments from different suppliers.

Bi-Clamp / B-Caliburn Details

Cutter or Cutting Function

The Bharat Surgical Bi-Clamp listing does not mention an integrated cutter. Unless confirmed otherwise, the product should be treated as a bipolar clamping forceps without a built-in cutting blade.

If B-Caliburn is intended to be a cutting model, Bharat Surgical should provide:

Blade type
Blade travel
Seal length
Cut length
Independent or combined activation
Blade-return mechanism
Reusable-blade instructions
Inspection and replacement criteria
Bi-Clamp / B-Caliburn Details

Reusable Instrument

The published Bi-Clamp is described as reusable and autoclavable. A reusable electrosurgical clamp requires controlled:

Cleaning
Inspection
Insulation testing
Functional testing
Sterilisation
Storage
Maintenance
Repair
Use-cycle tracking, where specified

Reusable does not mean unlimited reuse. The instrument must be removed from service when it no longer meets the manufacturer’s inspection or functional requirements.

Bi-Clamp / B-Caliburn Details

Sterile or Non-Sterile Supply

The listing identifies the product as sterile and also describes it as reusable. The quotation should clarify whether:

The first supply is sterile
The product is supplied non-sterile for hospital reprocessing
Sterile packaging is available only on request
A sterilisation certificate is supplied
The product must be cleaned and sterilised before first use

Do not publish a sterile claim without confirming the sterilisation method, packaging, shelf life and applicable documentation.
