Piffard dermal curette 5 1/2" straight size #4 7.0mm oval cup hexagonal handle

Controlled Curette Handling for Focused Surgical Work

The Piffard dermal curette is a straight, 5 1/2-inch instrument designed for controlled curette work using its 7.0mm oval cup. Its hexagonal handle provides a defined gripping surface that can support steady manual manipulation during focused tasks in ENT and General Surgery settings. The size #4 configuration offers a practical balance between cup capacity and access within the operative field, while the straight profile supports a direct approach where that geometry is appropriate. Use it as part of a facility-approved instrument set for procedures requiring deliberate contact, removal, or contouring with a curette.

Use Cases

• Support focused curette work in ENT procedures where a straight instrument and 7.0mm oval cup are appropriate.
• Use for general surgical tasks requiring controlled manipulation with a dermal curette.
• Apply the straight profile when a direct instrument approach suits the working area.
• Use the hexagonal handle to maintain a defined manual grip during precise instrument positioning.
• Incorporate the size #4, 7.0mm configuration into procedure sets requiring an oval-cup curette.

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the curette according to facility protocols and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the oval cup, working edges, straight shaft, and hexagonal handle before and after use for visible soil, damage, or deformation.
• Handle the curette carefully to avoid striking or bending the cup and working portion.
• Store it in a manner that protects the cup and prevents contact damage from other instruments.

General use; follow facility protocols.
