Shapleigh Ear Curette str 2mm, 13cm

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled removal of cerumen, desiccated debris and small foreign bodies from the external auditory canal in office-based ENT, audiology and ambulatory care settings. The small 2 mm working tip provides focused contact for delicate scooping adjacent to the canal walls and under direct visualization with an otoscope or speculum. Use with appropriate visualization and care near the tympanic membrane to avoid trauma.

Design & Configuration

The straight Shapleigh pattern provides a direct-line approach to the lateral and central portions of the external auditory canal. A slim shaft and compact 2 mm tip permit precise engagement of material with minimal disruption of surrounding tissue. The 13 cm overall length gives clinicians comfortable hand positioning and reach while maintaining tactile feedback for controlled extraction.
