Additional Information for Septum Elevator
Septum elevators are medical instruments used in nasal surgery to elevate and separate the nasal septum from the surrounding tissues. The nasal septum is the thin wall of cartilage and bone that divides the nasal cavity into two separate chambers.
Septum elevators are typically made of stainless steel and have a curved or angled tip. They are designed to gently lift and maneuver the nasal septum during surgical procedures such as septoplasty or rhinoplasty.
These instruments are commonly used by otolaryngologists (ear, nose, and throat specialists) to correct a deviated septum, which can cause breathing difficulties and other nasal problems. By elevating and repositioning the septum, septum elevators help to improve nasal airflow and restore proper function.
Septum elevators are part of the larger category of medical and surgical instruments, equipment, and supplies, which includes a wide range of tools used in various medical procedures. They are specifically classified under the supply group of Medical, Dental, and Veterinary Equipment and Supplies.
