English to Swedish translations [PRO]
Medical - Medical: Instruments / surgical procedure term
English term or phrase: Cervical use
Medical device user manual for XX retractor system (looks like a bent fork with blades and is used in surgical procedures to keep the incision open. You have to construct a frame to hold it fixed above the patient on the operating table. The question refers to the usage in a surgical procedure.

Target audience: Surgeons and medical professionals

Context: MINI RETRACTOR LITE LED [cervical use only]
My suggestion: Mini sårhaksljus med LED för användning i nackförfaranden eller halskotsoperationer

Which is correct nackförfaranden or halskotsoperationer or is there a better translation?

cervikal användning
Explanation:
I think this is the better translation. ""nackförfaranden" låter för diffust, och "halskotsoperationer" utesluter andra ingrepp än dem som utförs på halskotan. Detta dokument är ämnat för ortopeden och kan översättas rakt av.
