Pederson Vaginal Speculum 75x13mm

Clinical Application

The Pederson speculum is intended to provide atraumatic exposure of the vaginal canal and cervix for diagnostic and minor procedural use. Its slim blade profile is particularly suitable for nulliparous patients, patients with a narrow introitus, or those with vaginal atrophy. Common applications include routine pelvic exams, cervical cytology (Pap) sampling, colposcopy, IUD insertion and removal, and minor office gynecologic procedures requiring direct visualization of the cervix.

Design & Configuration

The bivalve design separates the anterior and posterior vaginal walls to create a clear working channel to the cervix. The Pederson pattern features narrower, flatter blades than wider Graves-style specula, reducing lateral tissue displacement and improving patient comfort during insertion and positioning. The 75 x 13 mm blade dimensions offer a low-profile reach adequate for cervical visualization while minimizing stretching of the introitus—useful in patients with limited vaginal capacity.
