Proctoscopes

Has anyone tried proctoscopes during exams?

Several times

And what was the feeling?

Straight out of the Ice compartment, a quick lathering of vaseline and then very slow but relentless insersion up a young Male Patients Rectum until he feels pressure on his Prostate Gland and wiggle until he ejeculates.

Never fails!

Rather than using Vaseline which is a bit of an insulator, you may try a water soluble lubricant such as K-Y that has been stored in the refrigerator.

While I'm beating up on Vaseline, I might as well take a few more shots. It works great for places that you need a clean petroleum based grease, places like kitchen cupboard hinges and drawer slides. For use as a lubricant for exams it is terrible. Above all it is harmful to most types of rubber, latex gloves and condoms in particular. It will prevent your metal instruments from rusting, but you also need an industrial degreaser to remove it, making it very difficult to properly disinfect instruments after the fact. Vaseline is not sterile and the open package supports bacterial growth, whereas most surgical lubricants are sterile and bacteriostatic. Water soluble (sterile) surgical lubricants are the way to go, save the Vaseline for chapped lips.

Thanks for that information DrJ58.

I have an examination scheduled tonight for a 19yr old Leeds University Student and have done as you say and popped a tube of KY in the fridge.

With the Anoscope in the deep freeze, this should I trust be as if not more effective than the vaseline.
