Clinical Application
This double-ended buttoned probe is designed for atraumatic exploration and guidance in surgical and procedural settings. Its blunt, rounded button tips allow clinicians to delineate sinus tracts, explore wounds, locate or follow channels and ducts, and guide instruments or sutures through soft-tissue passages without sharp edges. The 25 cm length provides extended reach for deeper cavities or longer tracks where a standard probe would be insufficient.
Design & Configuration
The double-ended (D/E) configuration reduces instrument exchanges by providing two working ends in a single instrument. Buttoned tips distribute contact force over a broader surface to minimize tissue trauma and reduce the risk of inadvertent perforation during probing. The 2 mm button diameter balances tactile feedback with a blunt profile suitable for delicate probing while maintaining a defined tip for navigation in narrow tracts. The straight shaft length of 25 cm gives added reach for procedures requiring access to deeper or less accessible areas.
