Hysteroscopy Tenaculum Forceps, Double Action, Semi-Rigid

Description

Instrument:

• Hysteroscopy Tenaculum Forceps Function:
• Grasp and manipulate tissues during a hysteroscopy procedure. A hysteroscopy is a visual examination of the inside of the uterus.

Key features:

• Double Action: The forceps may grip tissue using both a locking and ratchet action. The locking mechanism secures tissue, while the ratchet allows for finer modifications in gripping pressure.
• Semi-rigid: The instrument has a flexible shaft with some stiffness. This allows for more flexibility inside the uterus while retaining control and stability.
• Size: Typically comes in sizes like 5 French (Fr), which is a catheter diameter measurement.

Benefits:

• Improved Control: The double-action system provides fine control over tissue grabbing and manipulation.
• Maneuverability: The semi-rigid shape facilitates navigation inside the uterine cavity.
• Versatility: Suitable for gripping a variety of tissue types during hysteroscopy.

Applications in Hysteroscopy:

• Grasping and manipulating the cervix while inserting the hysteroscope.
• Holding uterine tissues, such as polyps or fibroids, awaiting removal or biopsy.
• Providing countertraction when doing other uterine surgical operations.
