Clinical Application
Designed for gynecologic procedures that require mechanical scraping or sampling of the endometrium and uterine cavity. Common uses include diagnostic endometrial sampling, sharp curettage during dilation and curettage (D&C), removal of retained products of conception, and uterine debridement under direct or indirect visualization. The instrument's length and rigid shaft support access to the uterine fundus in standard adult anatomy and in settings where a firm transmission of force is required.
Design & Configuration
The rigid shaft construction provides direct tactile feedback and controlled force transfer during curettage, reducing shaft flexion compared with flexible designs. The 31 cm overall length offers extended reach for access across the cervix to the uterine fundus without excessive handling. The 23 mm curette tip presents a broad scraping surface suitable for efficient tissue removal or sampling across a larger mucosal area, helping to reduce the number of passes required for adequate specimen collection.
