Jobson-Horne Cotton Applicator Double Ended, 18 cm (7″)
Features and Description:
The Jobson-Horne Cotton Applicator serves as a multi-functional tool for ENT specialists and general practitioners. Because it features a specialized double-ended design, this instrument allows clinicians to perform cleaning and debris removal within a single operative window. Consequently, it remains an essential component for routine ear examinations and complex otological procedures.
Furthermore, the 18 cm (7″) length provides the necessary reach to access the tympanic membrane and deep ear canal. Therefore, the clinician can maintain total control while performing delicate maneuvers near sensitive structures.
Key Features
- Double-Ended Versatility: This instrument features a threaded applicator tip at one end and a specialized loop at the other. As a result, the user can apply medication and remove earwax or debris without switching tools.
- Threaded Swab Tip: The fine, spiral-threaded end ensures that cotton wool fibers attach securely. For this reason, it prevents cotton remnants from becoming dislodged within the auditory canal.
- Precision Cleaning Loop: The small, rounded loop facilitates the gentle extraction of cerumen or foreign bodies. In addition, the smooth edges protect the delicate lining of the ear canal from trauma.
- Slender 18 cm Profile: The elongated shaft offers a perfect balance of reach and tactile feedback. Thus, it allows the surgeon to feel the subtle resistance of internal structures with great precision.
- Premium Stainless Steel Build: We manufacture the Jobson-Horne applicator from high-quality surgical steel for maximum durability. Moreover, the instrument is fully autoclavable and resists corrosion during professional use.
