Frequently asked questions
Is this retractor made from medical-grade stainless steel?
Yes, this instrument is crafted from high-grade stainless steel. This material is selected specifically for its:
- Durability and long-term performance in clinical environments.
- Non-porous surface, which is essential for maintaining strict hygiene standards.
How does the trough-like design help during procedures?
The unique trough-like architecture of the blade provides significant benefits for visibility:
- Fluid Management: It actively catches and channels blood and other fluids away from the surgical site.
- Unobstructed View: By directing fluids elsewhere, it ensures the posterior vaginal wall remains clearly visible throughout the procedure.
Is the material safe for patients with latex allergies?
Yes, this product is not made with natural rubber latex. It is safe to use for patients with latex sensitivities.
Is this tool designed to be reusable?
Yes, the Sklar Sims Vaginal Retractor is a reusable surgical instrument. It is built to withstand repeated use in clinical settings, provided it undergoes standard clinical sterilization protocols before each procedure.
Are the two ends of the tool identical?

What prep is needed before using this retractor?

Is this a manual-use instrument?
Yes, it is designed for manual operation. The healthcare provider inserts one blade into the vagina and uses the middle section or the opposing blade to retract the anterior wall, allowing for optimal exposure.
