Clinical Application
Designed for controlled cervical dilation, this graduated dilator is used to enlarge the cervical canal to facilitate access to the uterine cavity. It is appropriate for use in operative and diagnostic gynecology including office hysteroscopy, dilation & curettage (D&C), intrauterine device (IUD) procedures, and placement or removal of intrauterine instruments. The 7–12 mm size range covers common small-to-moderate dilation steps, useful for nulliparous or stenotic cervices and for serial dilation strategies to minimize cervical trauma.
Design & Configuration
The tapered, graduated geometry allows progressive, controlled dilation with predictable increases in diameter across the 7–12 mm range. A smooth, atraumatic conical tip reduces friction and tissue catch during passage, while the solid shaft transmits tactile feedback to the operator to help judge resistance and endpoint. The compact size range makes the instrument suitable for both office and operating-room settings where incremental dilation is required.
