Care homes and nursing homes often require surgical instruments so that the doctors can diagnose the disease and treat it properly. The proctoscope is very important for medical practitioners because it allows them to look into the body. It is a hollow tube, equipped with a light, and is used for diagnosing haemorrhoids, cancer, stomach ulcers, rectal poly, and other diseases. It is a type of speculum that is inserted in the anus and allows the physician to look inside the body. Proctoscopy is carried out when the patient complains of anal bleeding, pain in the buttocks and anal area, or in cases of unsolved pain in that part of the body.
They can be both disposable or non-disposable. Non disposable ones are made of stainless steel and have to be sterilised after each use. Recently, fibre optic proctoscopes are also used, since it causes less discomfort to the patient.
Care Shop, a UK based online store specialising in medical care equipment for care homes, has a wide range of these products. Items such as Prospec Disposable Proctoscope Large, Seward Thackray Disposable Proctoscope Adult, and Welch Allyn Single Use Light Stem For Proctoscope are easily available from this shop.
