Clinical Application
Designed for gynecologic procedures requiring tactile scraping or scooping of endometrial tissue. Common uses include diagnostic and therapeutic dilation and curettage (D&C), removal of retained products of conception, and targeted endometrial sampling. The curette loop enables controlled tissue acquisition under direct visualization or as part of blind sampling techniques used in outpatient and operating room settings.
Design & Configuration
The rigid 31 cm shaft provides extended reach and direct transmission of manual force for efficient scraping in deeper or enlarged uterine cavities. The 30 mm curette loop offers a broad scooping surface to engage tissue uniformly while minimizing the need for repeated passes. The Sims-style curette geometry favors a combination of scraping and scooping action, allowing clinicians to obtain diagnostic specimens or perform tissue removal with predictable tactile feedback.
