HEGAR Ø 4.0 - Ø 17.0 mm: a professional case of curved single-ended dilators for gynaecological procedures
The HEGAR Ø 4.0 - Ø 17.0 mm set offered by Frimed is designed for gynaecology professionals looking for a complete set of robust and precise dilators. It includes 14 single-diameter instruments, ranging from 4 mm to 17 mm, allowing for gradual and controlled progression in procedures requiring adequate cervical opening. Unlike double-ended models, each dilator has only one active tip. This is rounded and designed for smooth insertion, minimising the risk of microtrauma to the cervix.
The other end, which is wider and flatter, is not used for dilation. It serves as an ergonomic handle and depth limit, ensuring safe handling during the procedure. The curved shape of each rod fits more naturally to the cervical axis, facilitating insertion and stability during the procedure. This technical detail makes movements more fluid and reduces the effort required by the practitioner.
This set has a variety of applications: preparation of the cervical canal prior to endometrial exploration, surgical procedures, aspiration or curettage. The clear marking of each diameter on the instrument prevents confusion and allows for quick selection, which is essential in a clinical environment.
Storage in a rigid metal case ensures effective protection of the instruments, while simplifying sterilisation and transport. The case can be placed open on a surgical drape for quick access to the required sizes, making it an essential tool for gynaecological operating theatres or specialist practices. Durable, precise and well organised, this set embodies a reliable standard for mechanical uterine dilation.
