Anatomical Dilator
- General Details
A dilator designed for use in gynecological, rectal, or urological procedures to gently dilate stenotic anatomical orifices like the uterine cervix, anal canal, and urethra.
Key Features
- Expandable Tubular Member
The dilator features a tubular member that transitions from a closed state for insertion into a stenotic orifice to an open state, forming a passageway for surgical instruments. - Nitinol Core and Activation Mechanism
The inner metallic core is composed of nitinol wires, with a string extending through the tubular member to prevent unintended dilation. Activating the string releases the wires, allowing the tubular member to expand and provide unobstructed access. - Soft, Resilient Material
The external material of the tubular member is soft, absorbent, and resilient, minimizing trauma during dilation and ensuring gentle expansion of the orifice. - Variable Wire Tension
The wires have varying tension strengths and sizes to maintain a cylindrical shape in the dilated state, enabling the passage of medical instruments. - Integrated Measurement and Finder
The string features a blunt tip and measuring lines, serving both as a finder for structured orifices and a tool for measuring bodily cavities, such as the uterine cavity.
