Sklar's Econo umbilical scissors are non-ratcheted, finger ring scissors used for cutting the umbilical cord. These scissors feature wide, flat, curved blades. They are typically used without clamping the umbilical cord because the curvature of the blades holds the cord in place. Today the umbilical cord is often clamped at two points and cut in the middle with standard scissors. Econo instruments are Sklar’s line of cost effective floor grade disposables crafted in Pakistan. They are used in routine outpatient procedures and are sold in bulk quantities.
