Schroeder Uterine Scoop, Rigid

Description

Schroeder Uterine Scoop, Rigid

The Schroeder uterine scoop is a rigid, sharp spoon curette for uterine curettage. Its 30 cm length gives steady reach through the cervical canal.

Sharp spoon tip

The sharp edge of the spoon lets the surgeon scrape the uterine lining in controlled strokes. Because the shaft stays rigid, the tip follows the hand without flexing. So the surgeon feels firm, direct feedback from the wall.

Six spoon sizes

Spoon sizes run from 9×5 mm to 20×11 mm. Smaller spoons pass a narrow canal with less dilation, while larger ones clear more tissue per stroke. Also, several sizes let the team step up during one case.

Where it fits

Gynecology teams reach for this scoop during diagnostic and therapeutic curettage. In addition, it suits a D&C tray beside dilators and a tenaculum. Then the 30 cm length lets the operator work comfortably past the speculum blades.

Choosing a size

Match the spoon to the dilated canal and the size of the uterus. For example, many teams keep the 10×6 and 14×9 mm sizes together for routine work. However, the 20×11 mm Schroeder uterine scoop suits a larger cavity.

Looking after Schroeder uterine scoop

Flush the spoon under running water straight after the procedure, before residue hardens in the bowl. Next, brush the sharp rim gently and check it for nicks under good light. Then dry the scoop fully and store it apart from heavier instruments.
