Cusco Side-Screw Speculum Medium 85mm × 35mm

Cusco Side-Screw Speculum Medium 85mm × 35mm · SKU GY 12-100-02 — manufactured to ISO 13485:2016.

The Cusco vaginal speculum is named for Édouard-Gabriel Cusco, a nineteenth-century French gynecologist who refined the bivalve speculum design now standard in gynecological examination and minor procedures. The Cusco is single-handed and self-retaining via a ratchet that holds the valves open at the angle set by the examiner. Sizes are typically described as small (virgin), medium, and large, with corresponding blade lengths around 75 mm, 95 mm, and 115 mm. Modern Cusco specula are available in both reusable stainless steel and sterile single-use plastic; the reusable steel version with polished finish remains standard in office gynecology where good visualization is essential.

Manufacturing compliance is verified through ISO 13485:2016 certification (the international medical-device quality standard), CE marking under EU MDR 2017/745, and FDA establishment registration. Certificate copies and regulatory documentation are available on request for inclusion in hospital procurement files and EU technical documentation packages. Sterilization validation follows ISO 17665 for steam autoclave at 134 °C.
