Cottle Speculum 9mm to 4mm taper 30mm blades

Tapered Cottle Speculum for Controlled Surgical Access

The Cottle Speculum 9mm to 4mm taper with 30mm blades is a surgical speculum intended to gently hold tissue aside while supporting access and visualization in ENT and general surgery workflows. Its tapered profile progresses from 9mm to 4mm, offering a changing working width that can suit access requirements across the exposed area. The 30mm blades provide a defined blade size for controlled positioning during examination or surgical handling. By combining a recognizable Cottle speculum design with a graduated taper, this instrument supports deliberate retraction and practical manipulation where a clear, stable field is needed.

Use Cases

• Support controlled tissue retraction during ENT examination and surgical access.
• Assist with exposure and visualization during appropriate general surgery procedures.
• Use the graduated 9mm-to-4mm taper where a changing speculum width supports access along the working area.
• Position the 30mm blades for deliberate handling during examination, retraction, or access tasks.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean promptly after use according to facility procedures and the applicable instrument-care instructions.
• Inspect the blades and tapered profile for visible residue, damage, or deformation before handling and reuse.
• Handle the speculum carefully to preserve blade alignment and working surfaces.
• Store in a clean, protected location to reduce the risk of damage or contamination.

General use; follow facility protocols.
