Reusable Instruments

T-Tube Inserters (Made in Britain)
T-Tube Inserters (Made in Britain)
With the finger bows open, the tube is fully drawn, by means of a blunt point, introduced via the notch, into the barrel of the inserter, until the ‘wings’ of the tube are enclosed. The distal end is then presented to the tympanic incision and the tube is ejected into place by the closing of the finger bows.

Alternative Pattern (Made in Germany)
This instrument operates on the same principle but relies on thumb pressure on the proximal end of the handle, in lieu of finger bows. It incorporates its own ‘blunt point’ in the proximal end of handle and has a slotted distal end to improve visibility of the T-tube during insertion.

Grommet Inserters
The projection of the distal end of the inserter fits exactly into the matching lumen of the grommet. With the finger bows closed, the grommet will remain firmly on the end of the instrument, to be released into the incision by fully opening the finger bows.
