A single-use nasal speculum is a handheld surgical tool designed to widen the nostril for better visibility during medical procedures. Clinicians use these instruments to stretch the nasal tissue, allowing for easier examination or surgical access within the ear, nose, and throat.
These devices feature two blunt, contoured blades that are manually operated by the practitioner. Because they are intended for one-time use, they are constructed from disposable materials to ensure hygiene and eliminate the need for sterilization between patients.
