The Hank Uterine Dilator is a specialized gynecological instrument designed for controlled cervical dilation during compatible procedures. Its double-ended configuration provides two graduated working diameters, allowing the appropriate end to be selected according to the requirements of the procedure.
The instrument features 6.5 mm and 7 mm working diameters, corresponding to sizes 13 and 14. This graduated configuration provides convenient access to two consecutive dilation sizes within a single instrument.
Design and Configuration
The Hank Uterine Dilator incorporates two working ends with specified diameters of 6.5 mm and 7 mm. These correspond to sizes 13 and 14 respectively.
The graduated ends provide a defined progression between the two sizes. Each working end should remain smooth, properly formed, and free from visible damage to support controlled instrument handling.
Working-End Characteristics
The 6.5 mm and 7 mm ends provide two distinct working sizes for controlled dilation. Each end should be inspected individually before use to ensure proper dimensions, smoothness, and surface integrity.
The instrument should be handled carefully to prevent bending or deformation of either working end.
Gynecological Applications
The Hank Uterine Dilator may be suitable for compatible gynecological procedures requiring:
- Controlled cervical dilation
- Graduated dilation using 6.5 mm and 7 mm ends
- Instrument-assisted cervical access
- Procedures requiring sizes 13 and 14
- Gynecological procedures where a Hank-style dilator is appropriate
The specific clinical application and working size should be determined by a qualified healthcare professional according to the procedure and established clinical technique.
Handling and Use Considerations
The appropriate working end should be selected according to the clinical requirements of the procedure. The dilator should be handled with controlled pressure and used only for its intended application.
Before use, inspect both ends for proper shape, smoothness, alignment, and visible damage.
Cleaning and Instrument Care
After use, clean the dilator according to the healthcare facility's validated instrument-processing protocol. Both working ends and the connecting shaft should be thoroughly cleaned.
Following cleaning, inspect each end for surface condition, correct configuration, and any signs of bending or deformation.
Sterilization and Inspection
Sterilization should be performed according to the manufacturer's validated instructions and the healthcare facility's established sterilization protocol. Before reuse, verify that both working ends remain properly formed and free from visible defects.
