Uterine Explora Endocervical Curette Cannula-Curette with Syringe

Tis-U-Trap (Flat Trap) Tis-U-Trap (Cone Trap) Endo C Brushes

Spatulas Breast Biopsy Needle

Abbreviated Information:

A sterile disposable device consisting of clear plastic tissue collection chamber with flat filter, funnel, two sealing caps, reclosable poly bag with identification label, and one of several types of curettes illustrated, to be used with a suction source such as a pump or wall suction unit. Endometrial tissue is collected directly into the collection chamber, thereby eliminating the need to transfer the tissue sample into another container. The unique design of the collection chamber or trap assures ease of determining when an adequate sample has been obtained. The design also facilitates the routine handling of the tissue by ordinary procedures of any pathology laboratory. The self-contained trap minimizes the time and problems in handling the tissue sample.

The smaller sizes are especially useful in early detection of endometrial carcinoma or its precursors and endometrial dating.

Purpose:

1. Diagnostic: Obtain clearly differentiated endometrial tissue usually without anesthesia in an office setting. Diagnostic accuracy of histology of the endometrium is far superior to that of cytology.

Indications:

1. Detection of endometrial hyperplasia
2. Detection of endometrial cancer
3. Initial endometrial biopsy prior to prescribing estrogen replacement therapy to ensure endometrial lining is normal
4. Periodic monitoring of endometrial tissue in women receiving estrogen replacement therapy
5. Endometrial dating
6. Examination of glandular epithelium to determine ovulation and endometrial response to hormonal excretion and therapy
7. Detection of pathology resulting in infertility
8. Endometrial biopsy for postpartum endometritis
9. Bacterial culturing
10. Monitor patient receiving TAMOXIFEN therapy for breast cancer
11. Secondary amenorrhea

Advantages:

• The Tis-U-Trap is a low-cost device available in multiple sizes and styles for use in both diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.
• The convenience of collecting endometrial tissue directly from the uterine cavity into the collection chamber saves valuable doctor time and decreases the probability of losing tissue sample during the transfer of tissue from one chamber to another.
• Sizes may be assorted (10 TUT per box: sizes can be assorted.) to allow for the widest range of uses.

Limitations: Requires a suction pump capable of reaching 25-27 inches Hg of negative pressure.

Contraindications:

• Contraindicated in the presence of any vaginal, cervical, and/or pelvic infection(s). Infections must be treated prior to any endo- metrial curettage or biopsy.
• In general, the same criteria for regular hospital D&C should be followed for office suction curettage.
• Larger size curettes are recommended for patients with dysfunctional uterine bleeding with or without clot formation.
• Larger size curettes also indicated:
  • Following spontaneous incomplete abortion
  • Prior to hysteroscopy and endometrial ablation to clear visual field in patients with uterine bleeding.
