Abstract

A disposable speculum with cordless light source can be used to facilitate visibility of an examination area during urological vaginal procedures and pelvic exams. The speculum features first and second light sources mounted at an angle to the yoke of the speculum thereby illuminating the examination area and providing the clinician an unobstructed line of sight. Additionally, the speculum has an improved adjustment mechanism and design that together alleviate the stress that accompanies the feel and sound of the speculum articulating during use.
