Clinical Application
Designed for atraumatic exploration and probing of small-caliber tracts, ducts and fistulous passages. The buttoned, flat tip minimizes tissue snagging while the integrated eyelet allows controlled passage of suture, probe wires, or lightweight guide material during reconstructive, ENT, general surgical and wound-management procedures. The 16 cm length provides reach for deeper anatomical sites without sacrificing tactile feedback.
Design & Configuration
The straight, smooth-shaft geometry provides predictable directionality when advancing through narrow lumens. A buttoned flat tip reduces the risk of catching on mucosa or granulation tissue, and the built-in eyelet permits secure threading of suture or guide material for safe retrieval or placement. The 2 mm tip profile balances sufficient stiffness for controlled probing with a slim profile for delicate passages.
Instrument Specifications
- Type: probe with buttoned flat tip and eyelet
- Tip diameter: 2 mm
- Overall length: 16 cm
- Configuration: straight, smooth shaft for tactile feedback
- Primary uses: tract/duct exploration, suture/guide passage, fistula probing
- Reusable design for repeated clinical use after appropriate reprocessing
Material & Construction
Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel with a polished surface to reduce tissue adhesion and facilitate cleaning. Constructed as a single-piece probing instrument to maintain lumen-free surfaces and reliable tactile transmission. Intended for standard hospital reprocessing and steam sterilization cycles.
