Hegar Uterine Dilators S/E 14.0mm

Clinical Application

Used to mechanically dilate the cervical canal to a controlled diameter prior to intrauterine procedures. Commonly employed during dilation and curettage, diagnostic or operative hysteroscopy, intrauterine device placement, and other gynecologic procedures that require atraumatic cervical access. The 14.0 mm diameter provides a definitive final dilation when that level of cervical opening is required or when progressing through a sequential dilator series.

Design & Configuration

The straight, cylindrical design with a gently tapered, rounded tip facilitates atraumatic entry through the cervical os and provides tactile feedback to the operator as the instrument passes the internal os. Single-ended configuration simplifies handling and control during dilation and is compatible with standard dilator techniques—either as a final dilator or within a graduated set for progressive dilation. The solid rod geometry resists bending under axial load, allowing predictable, controlled dilation.
