Product Overview
The Cottle Nasal Speculum is a core diagnostic and surgical tool used to retract the nasal alae and provide a clear view of the nasal cavity and septum. Its specialized design features thin, tapered blades that allow for deep insertion with minimal patient discomfort, while the high-tension spring mechanism ensures the blades remain open exactly where you need them.
Key Features
-
Thin-Profile Blades: Designed to be exceptionally slender yet rigid, allowing the surgeon to work around the instrument with other tools like suction or forceps without obstructing the view.
-
Integrated Spring Mechanism: Equipped with a reliable leaf-spring handle that provides a smooth, controlled opening and ensures the speculum returns to a closed position automatically.
-
Multiple Blade Lengths: Available in various sizes (e.g., 35mm, 50mm, 75mm, and 90mm) to accommodate different nasal depths and patient ages.
-
Ergonomic Handle Grip: Features a textured, solid grip that provides a “beast-like” hold, ensuring the instrument does not slip or shift during high-tension retraction.
-
High-Grade Surgical Steel: Forged from premium stainless steel and hand-polished to ensure a smooth, atraumatic finish that protects the delicate nasal mucosa.
