Description
Hybrid pessaries represent an advanced development designed for enhanced patient comfort and ease of use. Their consistency allows for independent self-insertion, while their egg-shaped contour with concave suction cups ensures superior stability compared to conventional pessaries, without causing vaginal widening.
The term “Hybrid pessaries” reflects two primary functions: Ventrally, the pessary rests on the symphysis, providing support, while laterally, it is securely held in place by built-in recesses within the walls. This design allows for the drainage of discharge or blood centrally, and patients can use tampons at the same time. The device was specifically developed for treating lesions of the levator muscle, often associated with an enlargement of the hiatus (avulsion).
Tensile force tests have shown that the hold of these pessaries is approximately five times stronger than that of traditional models.
