Bioceptive
Suction Cervical Retractor Lands FDA Clearance
Bioceptive, a New Orleans-based firm, won FDA
Clearance to introduce its new
Suction Cervical Retractor to U.S. gy**cologists. Unlike
Cervical tenaculum forceps, the device uses
Suction to tug at the cervix, allowing various instruments to slip in.
The device can be used to perform intrauterine device insertions, endometrial biopsies, as various fertility procedures. Though the
Retractor can work with devices produced by other manufacturers,
Bioceptive is working on its own tools that will naturally work in conjunction with the new
Retractor to simply procedures.
“Bioceptive’s
Suction tenaculum is a truly **vel gynecologic instrument that permits
Cervical traction without tissue ***********. This device coupled with Bioceptive’s IUD inserter has the potential to revolutionize IUD insertion by dramatically simplifying the process,” said*David Turok, MD, MPH, Associate Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Utah, who worked with
Bioceptive on the new retractor.
