Description
Mayo scissors have wider, beveled blades and are used on tougher tissue such as fascia, where a Metzenbaum would be too fine. This is the original pattern, with classic rounded blades.
Choose straight or curved blades, in 15, 17 or 19 cm. For a 23 cm length that reaches deeper wounds, see the Mayo dissecting scissors; for finer dissection, the Metzenbaum dissecting scissors.
Store them closed and use them only on the material they are made for, so the edges stay sharp. They are supplied non-sterile: clean and sterilise them before use.

Care and use
Before first use
They are supplied non-sterile. Clean and sterilise them before first use, then check that the tips meet and the blades close smoothly along their length.
Cleaning
Clean them as soon as possible after use so nothing dries on. Use a neutral (pH 7) instrument detergent with the blades open; an ultrasonic cleaner reaches the joint best. Rinse well, ideally in distilled water, and dry completely.
Lubricating and sterilising
Before sterilising, treat the joint with a water-soluble instrument lubricant. Sterilise them with the blades slightly open, following your steriliser's instructions and your facility's process.
What to avoid
Saline, bleach and other chloride solutions cause pitting and corrosion in stainless steel. Don't soak or rinse the instrument in them, and keep it apart from instruments made of other metals during cleaning.
