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 permanent smoke evacuation tube

Frequently asked questions

Does this speculum protect patients during electrosurgery?

Yes. This instrument features a specialized Sklar Blue insulated coating. This non-conductive layer is specifically engineered to contain radio frequency (RF) currents, which significantly minimizes the risk of unintended tissue burning during procedures like LEEP.

How durable is the construction for daily clinical use?

This speculum is built to last. It is manufactured from high-quality stainless steel, ensuring the durability and reliability required for a busy medical practice. It is designed for repeated, long-term use.

Can this be safely sterilized in an autoclave?

Absolutely. The instrument is fully autoclavable and supports rigorous reprocessing protocols. It also complies with the ANSI/AAMI ST79 steam sterilization validation standards.

Does it work with ultrasonic cleaning equipment?

Yes, this speculum is compatible with ultrasonic cleaning methods, allowing for efficient and thorough reprocessing in your clinical environment.

How does the Graves design benefit the practitioner?

The Graves design features wider blades compared to the Pederson style. This broader surface area offers practitioners increased control and improved visualization, making it easier to select the right instrument based on individual patient anatomy.

Is the smoke evacuation tube permanent?

Yes, this model includes a permanently integrated smoke evacuation tube. This feature is designed to streamline your workflow during electrosurgical procedures by ensuring smoke is effectively managed without needing extra attachments.

Does the material contain any natural rubber latex?

No. This product is not made with natural rubber latex, making it a safer choice for patients and staff with latex sensitivities.

Does this meet official safety and biological standards?

Yes. Beyond its specialized insulation, the speculum complies with ISO 10993 standards for biological testing, covering critical factors like cytotoxicity and sensitization.

What are the specific dimensions of this medium size?

This unit is a standard Medium Graves size, with blade dimensions measuring 4 inches by 1-1/4 inches.

Is this suitable for LEEP procedures?

Yes, it is specifically engineered for electrosurgical gynecological procedures, including LEEP (Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure), where RF energy containment and reliable visualization are essential.
