Description

The Sklar Blue Electrosurgical Graves Vaginal Speculum is used for electrosurgical gynecological procedures, such as LEEP. It is a double blade duckbill speculum inserted with the blades closed. The blades are then opened by an external lever and screw. The Graves Speculum has wider blades than the Pederson Speculum and the practitioner can best determine which type and size speculum is most appropriate for the patient. The Sklar Blue Electrosurgical Graves Vaginal Speculum is available with a permanent smoke evacuation tube, a loop for disposable smoke evacuation tubing, or no smoke evacuation. Sklar Blue electrosurgical instruments feature high quality stainless steel with an insulated coating. This safe coating prevents radio frequency currents from being transmitted through the instrument which reduces the burning of non-targeted tissue. Sklar Blue instruments are fully autoclavable and may also be cleaned ultrasonically. All Sklar Blue coated instruments comply with biological testing requirements for cytotoxicity, sensitization regulatory, and ISO 10993 requirements. They also comply with the Pre-Vacuum and Gravity Cycle Steam Sterilization Validation of ANSI/AAMI ST79. This product is a extra-large sized speculum with 4-3/4" X 1-1/2" blades. There is no smoke evacuation device.

Frequently asked questions

Does the coating ensure safety during electrosurgery?

Yes, this instrument features a high-quality, insulated non-conductive coating. This specialized finish is designed to prevent radio frequency currents from transmitting through non-targeted tissue, significantly minimizing the risk of accidental burns to adjacent structures.

Is this speculum suitable for LEEP procedures?

Absolutely. This speculum is specifically engineered for gynecological electrosurgical applications, including LEEP (Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure), where managing current transmission is critical for patient safety.

How durable is the construction for daily clinical use?

The instrument is crafted from high-quality stainless steel, ensuring a sturdy and reliable build suitable for professional medical environments. It also includes a lifetime warranty, reflecting its long-term durability and quality.

Does the Graves design provide better visualization?

Yes, the Graves design is known for its wider blades compared to Pederson specula. This Extra Large model features 4-3/4” x 1-1/2” blades, which offer enhanced anatomical visualization, making it an excellent choice for larger patients.

Can this instrument be safely autoclaved?

Yes, the speculum is fully designed for clinical reprocessing. It is fully autoclavable and supports ultrasonic cleaning, complying with established ANSI/AAMI ST79 sterilization validation protocols.

Does this model include smoke evacuation features?

No, this specific configuration is provided without a smoke evacuation tube or loops. It is a streamlined design focused purely on visualization and surgical access.

Are the materials safe for patients with sensitivities?

Yes, the instrument is not made with natural rubber latex, making it a safer option for patients with latex allergies or sensitivities.

Does this meet official medical quality standards?

Yes, the product adheres to rigorous quality benchmarks, including compliance with ISO 10993 for biological testing and cytotoxicity standards, ensuring it meets the safety requirements necessary for surgical instruments.

Is the opening mechanism easy to control?

The speculum uses a precise external lever and screw mechanism. This allows practitioners to open and close the blades smoothly and maintain the desired aperture with accuracy during procedures.

Is this instrument TAA compliant?

Yes, this specific speculum is TAA compliant, meeting the requirements necessary for procurement in various professional and government-affiliated medical facilities.
