Patent abstract
A disposable cover for the opposed blades of a vaginal speculum comprises a tube of sheet plastic or elastomeric material having an opening at one end of the tube to receive the opposed blades of a speculum and pouches adjacent to the open opposite end of the tube for receiving the tips of the speculum blades to prevent rolling back of the sheet tube during vaginal inspection. The ends of the tube adjacent to the pouches terminate in resilient pointed tips to ease insertion of the covered blades in the vaginal area. The sheet cover is preferably prelubricated for ease of use and to eliminate excess lubricant interfering with cervical cytology results or microbiology studies.
