The force that a vascular clip exerts when it is applied to a vessel is a critical factor in its safe and proper use. Permanent occlusion effected in the obliteration of aneurysms requires clip closure forces great enough to resist sliping, yet low enough not to damage the neck of the aneurysm. The authors consider the need for a device that can readily measure clip closing forces just prior to pre-surgical sterilization (immediately prior to implantation), and an instrument that meets that need is presented.
血管夹在夹闭血管时所施加的力是其安全正确使用的关键因素。在动脉瘤闭塞过程中实现的永久性闭塞需要夹闭力足够大以防止滑脱，但又要足够低以免损伤动脉瘤颈部。作者认为需要一种能够在术前灭菌前（即将植入前）方便地测量夹闭力的装置，并介绍了一种满足该需求的仪器。
