Reusable vascular clip appliers designed for application of atraumatic microvascular clips usually intended for ligature of blood veins or arteries in the scalp, to stop and/or prevent bleeding (i.e., hemostasis). These appliers are available in a variety of shapes and sizes; some appliers include a mechanism for multiple insertions of clips. Reusable scalp clip appliers are typically metal; they are mainly used in neurosurgical procedures. The applied clips are usually intended for temporary use during surgery.
