The Kolplast Cervical Sample Collection Kit is composed of the Kolplast Cervical Brush Protected Tip and the Kolplast Cervical Plastic Spatula and is a single use, non-sterile, disposable manual gynecological device. The Cervical Brush Protected Tip is intended for the collection of cytological specimens from the endocervix and the Cervical Plastic Spatula is intended for the collection of cytological specimens from the ectocervix. The Cervical Brush Protected Tip has a head consisting of white nylon bristles, and secured by stainless steel to the plastic handle. During collection of endocervical cells, the Cervical Brush Protected Tip is inserted into the cervix, rotated once via the handle and removed from the cervix. The collected cytological specimen is then transferred to the glass slide by smearing, or to the preservative fluid in a container by rotating the tip 10 times while pushing against the container wall. The Kolplast Plastic Spatula is made of plastic and incorporates a long edge and a notched end. During collection of ectocervical cells, the notched end is put against and rotated 360° around the circumference of the ectocervix. The retained cytological specimen is then transferred to the same glass slide by smearing, or to the preservative fluid in the same container by swirling 10 times. The collected samples on glass slide, or in preservative fluid in a container will be sent to a cytology lab for Pap Test analysis.
