Sheathing tube
Sheath tubes are typically made from high-quality medical-grade materials, such as latex-free, non-allergenic polymers. This ensures that the sheath can be used safely in patients with sensitivities or allergies. The sheath is thin and flexible and can be easily installed over the dilator without affecting its functionality or impeding the procedure.
One of the main advantages of using sheathing tubing is that it provides an extra layer of protection. By creating a barrier between the dilator and the patient's body, the sheath minimizes the risk of contamination and reduces the chance of introducing bacteria or other pathogens. This is especially important in sterile environments such as operating rooms or medical clinics, where maintaining a clean and sterile atmosphere is critical.
Additionally, the sheath tube simplifies handling and disposal of used dilators. After the procedure is complete, the sheath can be easily removed from the dilator and discarded. This eliminates the need for extensive cleaning and sterilization, saving valuable time and resources.
