Clinical Application
Designed for secure handling, placement and removal of tampons, gauze, sponges and packing in confined anatomical spaces. Commonly used in ENT procedures (nasal packing), gynecologic procedures (vaginal tampons), minor surgical and wound-care settings where controlled placement or extraction of soft packing is required. The spike tip provides a reliable purchase on soft materials, reducing slippage and the need for repeated passes.
Design & Configuration
The elongated 22 cm shaft offers extended reach into deeper cavities while maintaining tactile control at the handles. The spike tip configuration is intended to engage and retain soft packing material securely, allowing clinicians to position or remove tampons with minimal manipulation. The slim profile helps access narrow sockets and working corridors with reduced disruption to surrounding tissue.
