Sims Uterine Curette rig. sh 21mm 31cm Fig.11

Clinical Application

Used in gynecologic and obstetric procedures for mechanical removal or sampling of endometrial and intrauterine tissue. The instrument is suitable for diagnostic and therapeutic dilatation and curettage (D&C), evacuation of retained products of conception, and targeted endometrial sampling where a controlled scraping or scooping action is required.

Design & Configuration

The Sims pattern features a spoon-style curette head optimized for scraping the uterine cavity walls while preserving tactile feedback. A rigid shaft provides direct force transmission and enhanced control compared with flexible curettes, making it preferable when firmer tissue engagement is needed. The 31 cm overall length allows adequate reach for intrauterine access during transvaginal procedures while the 21 mm curette surface balances surface area for effective tissue capture with controlled maneuverability.
