Q

Avard Weighted Speculum

A
  • Retracting/viewing

Q

Uterine Sound

A
  • Accessory
  • This is a measuring devise used to measure the depth of the uterus.
  • Atraumatic: It is inserted vaginally through the cervical

17
Q

Goodell Uterine Dilator

A
  • Dilating
  • This dilator is inserted into the cervical opening and
    slowly the nut is tightened forcing the cervix to dilate
    as the jaws are spread.
  • Allows for introduction of instrumentation.
18
Q

Sims Uterine Curettes

A
  • Cutting/dissecting
  • Used to scrape a sample of
    endometrial tissue from
    the interior walls of the
    uterus in a Dilation &
    Curettage (D&C)
    procedure.
  • They remove excess tissue
    that may be causing heavy
    bleeding or pain. This
    tissue is sent to pathology
    for inspection.
19
Q

Endocervical Curette

A
  • Cutting/dissecting
  • Used to scrape a sample
    of endocervical tissue
    from the interior walls
    of the cervix in a
    Dilation & Curettage
    (D&C) procedure.
  • This tissue is sent to
    pathology for
    inspection.
20
Q

Thomas Uterine Curettes

A
  • Cutting/dissecting
  • Used to bluntly remove
    loose uterine contents
    during a Dilation &
    Curettage (D&C)
    procedure.

    tissue is sent to pathology
    for inspection.
21
Q

Hysteroscopy Cannula

A
  • Viewing
  • Placed through the cervix
    to endoscopically view
    within the uterus.

Obturator allows for
atraumatic insertion
through the cervix.

22
Q

Uterine Tenaculum

A
  • Grasping/Holding
  • The sharp penetrating jaws of this clamp are secured
    to the cervix so it may be stabilized with traction
    during any uterine procedure with a vaginal
    approach.
23
Q

Cystoscopy Cannula

A

Viewing

  • Placed through the urethra to endoscopically view within the
    bladder.

Obturator allows for atraumatic insertion through the urethra.

24
Q

Cystoscope/Hysterscope

A
  • Viewing
  • A 4 mm scope that come in 0, 30, 90 and 120 degree angled lenses.
  • They are used to examine the uterus and/or bladder and the
    surgeon will switch to different angled scopes to facilitate his view of the entire organ and appendage orifices.
25
Q

Operative Cystoscope

A
  • Viewing
  • Introduced through a
    cystoscope cannula
    (sheath).
  • The dials by the lens
    move the lever at the
    distal end of the scope
    to help the surgeon
    introduce instruments
    into the tiny ureteral
    openings.
26
Q

Working Element with
Cutting Loop

A

Occluding/Cutting

    bladder.
  • For longer procedures
    2 or 4 spike tubing
    may be used.
28
Q
