Cotton Carrier for Rectoscope 45cm

Clinical Application

Used to introduce, position, and retrieve cotton pledgets or small gauze packs through a rectoscope during diagnostic and therapeutic anorectal procedures. Common applications include delivery of topical agents, controlled tamponade for minor bleeding, placement of medicated packing, and atraumatic handling of packing material within the rectal vault.

Design & Configuration

The long, rigid 45 cm shaft provides the reach required to work through the length of a rectoscope while keeping the surgeon’s hand outside the field. A slender profile facilitates passage through standard rectoscope working channels or alongside scopes, and a purpose-shaped distal tip secures cotton pledgets during placement and retrieval without excessive bulk that could obstruct visualization. The proximal handle geometry offers tactile control for precise positioning and release.
