A surgical instrument is a specially
designed tool or device for performing specific actions of
carrying out desired effects during a surgery or operation,
such as modifying biological tissue, or to provide access
for viewing it. Over time, many different kinds of surgical
instruments and tools have been invented. Some surgical
instruments are designed for general use in surgery, while
others are designed for a specific procedure or surgery.
Accordingly, the nomenclature of surgical instruments
follows certain patterns, such as a description of the
action it performs (for example, scalpel, hemostat), the
name of its inventor(s) (for example, the Kocher forceps),
or a compound scientific name related to the kind of surgery
(for example, a tracheotome is a tool used to perform a
tracheotomy).
The expression surgical instrumentation is somewhat
interchangeably used with surgical instruments, but its
meaning in medical jargon is really the activity of
providing assistance to a surgeon with the proper handling
of surgical instruments during an operation, by a
specialized professional, usually a surgical technologist or
sometimes a nurse or radiographer.
