Cook Ureteral Dilator Polyethylene G14299
The Ureteral Dilator Polyethylene G14299 is a medical device used to gently widen the ureter (the tube carrying urine from kidney to bladder). It is made of polyethylene and is designed for use before procedures like ureteroscopy or stone removal. This dilator helps in preparing the ureter for safe passage of scopes, stents, or instruments.
The Ureteral Dilator Polyethylene G14299 allows controlled, gradual dilation of the ureteral passage with minimal trauma to the tissue. Its smooth, tapered design reduces friction and eases insertion, improving patient safety and comfort during urological procedures. Its radiopaque nature enables visualization under imaging (e.g. fluoroscopy), helping clinicians place it accurately. This dilator is often used prior to inserting access sheaths, stents, or for stone extraction, thereby facilitating effective and safe endourological intervention.
