Before use, inspect shaft alignment, tips, cups, locks, articulation, channel patency, and sterilization status.
Principal Risks: Potential complications include uterine perforation, cervical/vaginal trauma, bleeding, infection, pain/cramping, tissue-pressure injury, thermal injury near energy devices, and component separation.
Insertion and operation must be performed solely by trained healthcare professionals. Avoid excessive force or rotational pressure.
Follow the validated instructions supplied with the instrument: prompt pre-cleaning, disassemble removable parts, open/unlock movable parts, rinse, clean with neutral detergent, brush joints/threads, flush single channel, rinse, dry, inspect, package, and sterilize using a validated cycle.

Technical, component, safety and reprocessing answers for the Bharat Surgical V-Type Uterine Manipulator range.
It is a reusable gynecological instrument used to position, mobilize and stabilize the uterus during selected laparoscopic procedures.
It refers to the instrument’s design pattern or configuration. It does not necessarily mean the intrauterine tip is V-shaped.
The current product listing specifies an atraumatic rounded tip.
Yes. Bharat Surgical lists the instrument as reusable.
The main instrument is listed as stainless steel with applicable medical-grade components.
Yes. Adjustable articulation is listed for the current configuration.
Small, medium and large cup options are listed. Their actual diameters should be confirmed.
Yes. Bharat Surgical lists a single-channel configuration.
The public listing does not define its exact function. Buyers must confirm whether it is intended for suction, injection, insufflation or another approved purpose.
Only if the supplied configuration is specifically designed and approved for dye injection. A single channel alone does not confirm this function.
Only when a suitable sealing component is included and the manufacturer approves that use.
It may be used for selected hysterectomy procedures when the supplied model is suitable and the surgeon determines its use is appropriate.
It may be considered when uterine positioning is required and the product’s instructions permit that application.
An adjustable manipulator may support controlled uterine positioning, but the exact available movements and range should be confirmed for the selected model.
Bharat Surgical describes it as autoclavable. The validated temperature, exposure time and drying parameters must be obtained from its instructions.
Replacement cups may be available, but the diameter and connection design must match the existing instrument.
Compatibility must never be assumed. Connections, threads, dimensions and locking mechanisms can differ.
Cup selection depends on cervical and vaginal anatomy, the planned procedure, surgeon preference and the manufacturer’s instructions.
Check the tip, cups, shaft, handle, locks, articulation, channel, connections, cleanliness and sterilization status.
Potential risks include uterine perforation, cervical or vaginal trauma, bleeding, infection, excessive tissue pressure and component separation.
Medical and Procurement Disclaimer: All dimensions, cup sizes, tip lengths, materials, channel connections and sterilization parameters must be verified against the final quotation and product instructions. Next Level 4 page: Tintara Uterine Manipulator.
