Pilling Surgical bougies have a latex-free silicone casing with calibration marks. Because the silicone surface is non-slip when dry and slippery when wet, it gives you a good grip, yet allows for easier, less traumatic insertion. And, unlike rubber, it won??t cause problems for patients who are allergic to latex.
The calibration marks, along with the radio-opaque material in the flexible tip of the Maloney-style, make it simple for you to determine the exact depth of insertion.
Pilling Surgical dialators are date stamped and include a three-year guarantee.
So consider our new bougies for everything they have, but even better, for the things they don??t have.
