Surgical instrument design requires a comprehensive consideration of materials, tooth structure, operating angle, and ergonomics. The Çakır nasal bone rasp is a reflection of this technical approach in surgical practice.
Associate Professor Barış Çakır, Ph.D.
Barış Çakır’s interest in materials and craftsmanship, which began with his technical high school education, extends to the design of surgical instruments. In the development of the nasal bone rasp, an approach was adopted that took into account different working conditions and the surgeon’s range of motion.
The design of the rasp takes both hardness and flexibility into account. The current design description emphasizes the importance of choosing high-hardness steel and the material’s behavior during surgical use.
The shape, depth, and angle of the teeth relative to the bone are the factors that determine the instrument’s feel during use. The design focuses on a straight tooth structure and an appropriate working angle.
The ability to move with precision within the limited space inside the nose requires an assessment of the relationship between the tip and the handle. The instrument’s geometry was designed with this working area in mind.
The choice of instrument depends on the planned procedure. Information regarding instrument design does not imply that the same method will be used for all patients or that the same outcome will be achieved.
The surgical instruments to be used are selected based on the bone structure and the procedures to be performed.
