Vaginal rectocele reduction instrument

A vaginal rectocele reduction instrument is a handheld device designed to manually correct a rectocele—a bulge of the rectum through the vaginal wall—during bowel movements. Patients use it internally to ease defecation without needing digital manipulation, offering a non-surgical alternative to permanent solutions like pessaries or surgery.

These instruments are typically reusable, made of durable materials like plastic, and require proper cleaning between uses. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified based on their intended use and risk profile, often requiring compliance with medical device standards for reusable patient-applied tools.
