Hegar Uterine Dilators S/E 1.5mm

Clinical Application

Used to achieve controlled cervical dilation, this instrument provides a precise, atraumatic option for initial or incremental dilation steps. The small 1.5 mm diameter is suited to very fine dilation or to establishing an initial tract prior to progression through a graduated set. Typical clinical uses include dilation prior to uterine instrumentation for diagnostic and operative hysteroscopy, dilation during dilation and curettage (D&C), and controlled cervical preparation for device placement.

Design & Configuration

The single-ended straight cylindrical geometry and gently tapered, rounded tip minimize snagging and reduce cervical trauma during passage. The smooth surface and uniform diameter allow predictable tactile feedback for the operator, which aids in judging tissue resistance and avoiding over‑dilatation. When used sequentially in a graduated set, the small increment represented by the 1.5 mm instrument enables fine control of dilation increments.
