Clinical Application
This dilator is intended for mechanical cervical dilation to a 19 mm working diameter to allow access to the uterine cavity. It is used by gynecologists and surgical teams during procedures such as dilation and curettage (D&C), hysteroscopy setup, uterine instrument insertion, and other diagnostic or therapeutic intrauterine interventions where a controlled, atraumatic dilatation is required. The 19 mm size is commonly used as a final dilator in staged dilation protocols or as the target size for procedures requiring larger cervical access.
Design & Configuration
The instrument features a straight, solid shaft with a smooth taper culminating in an atraumatic rounded tip. The tapered geometry provides progressive dilation during insertion, enabling controlled stretching of the cervical canal and minimizing tissue trauma. A straight profile facilitates alignment with the cervical canal and predictable tactile feedback for the operator during dilation. Smooth surfaces reduce catch points and simplify insertion and removal.
