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 medium sized speculum with 4" X 1-1/4" blades. It has a loop to hold and direct disposable smoke evacuation tubing.

Frequently asked questions

How does the blue coating enhance patient safety?

The specialized blue coating is a high-quality, non-conductive insulation layer. It prevents unintentional radio frequency (RF) current transmission, significantly minimizing the risk of burning non-targeted tissue during electrosurgical procedures.

Is this speculum ideal for LEEP procedures?

Yes, the Graves design features wider blades compared to Pederson specula, providing the broader visibility and ease of access required for LEEP and similar gynecological electrosurgical procedures.

How does the loop assist with smoke evacuation?

The integrated loop is specifically engineered to secure and direct disposable smoke evacuation tubing. This allows for seamless integration of smoke extraction during procedures where tissue vaporization occurs, keeping the operative field clear.

Is this instrument compatible with standard sterilization methods?

Yes, the instrument is fully reusable and designed for robust cleaning protocols. It is:

  • Fully autoclavable for standard steam sterilization.
  • Compatible with ultrasonic cleaning systems.
Is the material quality reliable for clinical use?

The instrument is constructed from high-quality stainless steel, providing durability and a stable core. This is then finished with the proprietary insulated coating, ensuring both mechanical strength and electrosurgical safety.

Does the speculum meet necessary medical compliance standards?

Yes, it is fully compliant with essential industry standards, including:

  • ISO 10993: Biological testing for cytotoxicity and sensitization.
  • ANSI/AAMI ST79: Steam sterilization validation protocols.
Is this instrument safe for latex-sensitive patients?

Yes, this speculum is not manufactured with natural rubber latex, making it suitable for use with latex-sensitive patients.

What are the dimensions of the medium blades?

The Medium Graves blades measure 4 inches in length by 1-1/4 inches in width, providing a wider surface area for improved visualization compared to narrower blade styles.

Is this instrument TAA compliant for procurement?

Yes, this Sklar Blue Electrosurgical Graves Vaginal Speculum is fully TAA compliant.

How is the blade mechanism operated during use?

The speculum utilizes a classic, reliable Graves duckbill design. It is inserted while closed and can be precisely adjusted using the external lever and screw mechanism, allowing for controlled opening and visualization.
