Frequently asked questions
Is this device made from medical-grade materials?
Yes, this pessary is constructed from high-quality, medical-grade silicone. This material is selected for its flexibility, ensuring it is gentle for internal use while providing the necessary structural integrity for prolapse support.
How does the design assist with easier insertion?
The EvaCare Gellhorn features a unique, flexible knob design. During the insertion process, the central knob can be folded over, which significantly reduces the profile of the device and makes the placement process much more comfortable for the patient.
Why are the drainage holes important?
The base of the device is equipped with integrated drainage holes to ensure proper fluid management. This feature is essential for maintaining hygiene and overall comfort during daily use.
Is this model suitable for advanced prolapse?
Yes, this device is specifically engineered for the management of second to third-degree uterine prolapse, as well as complete procidentia, providing consistent and reliable support.
Does the design ensure secure placement?
Once inserted, the device is designed to rest securely against the posterior vaginal wall. Its specific geometry provides a stable anchor, which is critical for effective clinical support.
Are there different sizing options available?
This specific unit is Size 8. The EvaCare Gellhorn product line is manufactured in a total of nine different sizes to help medical professionals find the most appropriate fit for individual patient needs.
Is this a TAA-compliant medical device?
Yes, the EvaCare Gellhorn is Trade Agreement Act (TAA) compliant, meeting the necessary standards for government procurement and medical supply chain requirements.
How should I handle the silicone during insertion?
The silicone is flexible and matte-finished. Because the material is designed to be pliable, the central knob can be easily folded. We recommend working with your healthcare provider to ensure you are comfortable with the specific insertion technique for your needs.
What is the primary function of the stem?
The elongated stem ending in a rounded knob serves as the primary structural component for support. It works in tandem with the wide, circular base to ensure the device maintains its position and provides consistent pressure and support against the vaginal wall.
Is the device lightweight for daily comfort?
