Integra LifeSciences Uterine Sound, Disposable User Manual
Integra, Miltex, Disposable uterine sounds

Description
The Uterine Sound is used to gauge the depth and position of the uterine cavity. It
is also helpful with the placement of IUDs (Intra-uterine device) and the verification
of the intrauterine position and length for HSG (Hysterosalpingography)
procedures. The proximal portion of the sound is 3.5 mm in diameter tapering to
2.5 mm at the distal portion with a bulbous tip to reduce the risk of perforation.
The device is malleable to adapt to anatomical variations.
It is a sterile, disposable, single-use only device.
Indications
The Uterine Sound is used to gauge the depth and position of the uterine cavity. It
is also helpful with the placement of IUDs and the verification of the intrauterine
position and length for HSG procedures.

are present:
• Infection, including but not limited to, Acute Cervicitis and Endometriosis.
• Unexplained uterine bleeding.

Precautions

• Disposable Uterine Sounds are designed for single-patient use only.

• The use of excessive force should be avoided.
• Minor bleeding, cervical inflammation, and abdominal cramps may occur.
Warnings
• Gently introduce and manipulate the tip of the sound through the
cervical canal.
• Forced entry could create a false tunnel and bleeding.
Instructions
The Uterine Sound is a single-use sound made of white, malleable, plastic material.
Prior to use, the sound can be curved between the thumb and finger in order to
follow the curve of the cervical canal. The graduations are in centimeters and allow
for the measurement of the uterine cavity.
