Description

Killian Nasal Speculum is designed to open the nasal passage and give the surgeon a clearer view during nasal and ENT procedures. It measures 13 cm (5″) in length and has plain blades. Its compact size makes it easy to position inside the nostril while keeping the instrument manageable in the hand.

The plain blades have a smooth, broad shape for gently holding the nasal walls apart. Unlike a toothed or serrated working end, the plain surface provides a simple contact area for opening the passage. This makes the speculum useful when the surgeon needs clear access without a gripping or cutting surface.

The speculum is available with 35 mm, 45 mm, 55 mm, 65 mm, 75 mm, and 90 mm blade lengths. These different sizes allow the surgeon to choose the amount of opening and reach needed for the procedure. The overall instrument length remains 13 cm (5″), while the blade length changes between the available options.

A locking screw is built into the instrument, allowing the blades to be held at the desired position once they have been opened. This can be useful when the surgeon needs the nasal passage to remain open without continuously squeezing the handles. The handles are curved and have textured sections that give the fingers a steadier grip.

The instrument is made from surgical stainless steel, giving it the strength and durability needed for repeated surgical use. Before use, the blades should be checked for proper alignment, dents, or rough areas. The locking screw and joint should also be checked to make sure they move and hold correctly, followed by proper cleaning and sterilization.

For nasal procedures where steady access to the nasal passage is needed, Killian Nasal Speculum offers a simple plain-blade design with adjustable positioning. Its 13 cm (5″) length, locking screw, and choice of six blade lengths make it suitable for different examination and surgical requirements in ENT and nasal procedures.
