Backhaus towel forceps secure surgical drapes to one another and to the patient, keeping the sterile field closed throughout the procedure. Their sharp, inward-curving tips pierce and hold the drape layers, and the ratchet locks the clamp so it stays in place without supervision. They are also commonly used to anchor suction tubing and diathermy cables to the drapes.
