The OB/GYN 3 1/4″ × 1 1/2″ Auvard Speculum is a weighted vaginal speculum designed for controlled exposure and visualization during compatible gynecological procedures. Its Auvard-style configuration incorporates a weighted design intended to assist with maintaining the instrument's position during appropriate procedures.
The speculum has a 3 1/4-inch × 1 1/2-inch size configuration and weighs 2 1/2 pounds. Its defined dimensions provide a specific working profile for gynecological examination and surgical applications.
Design and Configuration
The instrument features an Auvard-style weighted speculum configuration with a 3 1/4-inch × 1 1/2-inch dimensional profile. The 2 1/2-pound weight provides the weighted characteristic associated with this configuration.
The broad working surface is designed to provide controlled access and visualization of the vaginal field during compatible procedures. Before use, the speculum should be inspected for structural integrity, surface condition, and cleanliness.
Working-End Characteristics
The speculum provides a defined working profile for controlled vaginal exposure. Its dimensions determine the size of the working area and should be considered when selecting the instrument for a particular clinical application.
The working surfaces should remain smooth, properly formed, and free from visible damage or deformation.
Gynecological Applications
The OB/GYN Auvard Speculum may be used for compatible gynecological examinations and surgical procedures where controlled vaginal exposure and visualization are required.
Specific instrument selection and clinical use should be determined by a qualified healthcare professional according to the procedure, patient requirements, and established clinical protocols.
Handling and Use Considerations
The 2 1/2-pound weighted construction should be handled carefully during preparation, positioning, removal, cleaning, and storage. Its weight and dimensions should be considered when selecting an appropriate instrument for the intended application.
Before use, inspect the speculum for cracks, deformation, surface damage, corrosion, or other irregularities. Ensure that the instrument is clean and in suitable condition before clinical use.
Cleaning and Instrument Care
Clean the speculum promptly after use according to the healthcare facility's validated instrument-cleaning procedure. Thoroughly clean all working surfaces and areas where residual material may accumulate.
Avoid abrasive cleaning methods that could damage or scratch the instrument surface. After cleaning, inspect the speculum for cleanliness, corrosion, deformation, and surface integrity.
Sterilization and Inspection
Sterilization should be performed according to the manufacturer's validated instructions and the healthcare facility's established sterilization protocol. Before each use, inspect the instrument for structural damage, corrosion, cracks, deformation, and other visible defects.
Any instrument with compromised structural integrity or surface condition should be removed from service and evaluated according to institutional procedures.
