Proctoscopy, or rectoscopy, is a common medical procedure in which an instrument called a proctoscope (also known as a rectoscope, although the latter may be a bit longer) is used to examine the anal cavity, rectum, or sigmoid colon. A proctoscope is a short, straight, rigid, hollow metal tube, and usually has a small light bulb mounted at the end. It is approximately 15 cm (5 inches) long, while a rectoscope is approximately 25 cm (10 inches) long.^[1] During proctoscopy, the proctoscope is lubricated and inserted into the rectum, and then the obturator is removed, allowing an unobstructed view of the interior of the rectal cavity. This procedure is normally done to inspect for hemorrhoids or rectal polyps and might be mildly uncomfortable as the proctoscope is inserted further into the rectum. Modern fibre-optic proctoscopes allow more extensive observation with less discomfort.

Stapes Prosthesis Forceps

Stapes prosthesis handling forceps are specialized surgical instruments used in otologic procedures, particularly for stapes surgery. These forceps are designed to handle and manipulate stapes prostheses during the surgical process. Here are some key features and specifications:

• Stapes Prosthesis Handling Forceps: These forceps are used to catch and manipulate the hook of the stapes prosthesis. They have grooves in their jaws that allow the hook of the prosthesis to open when forced into the grooves. This design enables the prosthesis to be easily assembled to the incus.
• Material: The forceps are typically made of stainless steel, which provides durability and resistance to corrosion.
• Ref No: EI03: This refers to a titanium-stapes prosthesis handling forceps, with each unit packed in a box.
• Ref No: EI05: This refers to a PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene)-stapes prosthesis handling forceps, also packed in a single unit per box.

These forceps are crucial for ensuring precise and effective placement of the stapes prosthesis during surgery, which is essential for restoring hearing in patients with conductive hearing loss due to conditions like otosclerosis.

Wand medical

Medical wands are devices used in various healthcare applications. Here are some examples:

• MedWand Solutions, Inc.: A telehealth tool that enables a comprehensive physical exam from anywhere, enhancing healthcare providers’ efficiency and revenue.
• Intimate Rose Pelvic Wand: A medical-grade silicone device designed to relieve trigger points in the pelvic floor muscles, aiding in pelvic pain relief.
• Powerwand: Designed by clinicians to help increase patient safety and patient satisfaction, though specific details about its function are not provided in the context.
• Surgical Wand: Utilizes RF scanning technology to detect potential retained surgical items after procedures, ensuring patient safety by scanning patients at the end of all surgical procedures.
• Amsino AmSure - Yankauer Suction Wand: An aid used with a suction unit or aspiration machine to remove oral secretions and excess saliva, featuring a flexible sterile wand with a regular tip and available with or without a hand control vent.

These wands serve different purposes in medical settings, from telehealth exams to surgical safety and patient care.
