Favorite medical equipment/instrument !

A lot of lube, speculum & flex lite

Hmm well besides a stethoscope, mine would be a good ekg/defib unit for the testing phases of the exam

Defo Speculum

Collins speculum

A syringe ready for the injection

For me, one of the best medical instrument is gyno table. This is big, and i know any people who decided to buy this.

I've recently purchased an endoscope and it's proving a big hit with the patients.

I should explain that it is NOT a medical version but rather one for building work, investigating cavities etc.

Thus, its not waterproof and cannot be sterilised. I use it for pointing the camera probe through a speculum, either vaginal or anal, so that it does not 'touch the sides'.

It radiotransmits the live pictures, of a pulsing cervix for instance, to a video screen which the patient can hold. Most of course have never even seen a still picture, much less a moving image of their vagina or rectum.

I vote this as currently my favourite instrument.

That sounds fascinating, BigK. Your patients are so lucky to have you as their play Doc. You are certainly one of the best play Docs out there.

I had, what sounds like a similar experience, when a play Doc took a small camera and filmed my clit while he was giving me an exam. My little pearl jumped around like a jelly bean during my Os. It was also fascinating to watch.

Having little experience, I'd have to say a speculum. But I'm also not against a dental gag. 😃

Yeah I agree, a cold speculum has to be way up there. It doesn't matter whether it's an anal or vaginal speculum, me using it or the one it's being used on; the purpose of the instrument is just too awesome 😃 Hence my number one vote!

Large Foley catheter - ready to go with a lube pack, fenestrated drape kit, and a large syringe!

For me offcourse a nice cold stethoscope. on second place white latex surgical gloves

I like old glass thermometers and old metal syringes.

Oh a nice rigid tube anal scope would be divine!

For me it has to be a COLD stethoscope

The old metal speculum. 😄

Black rubber anesthesia mask with all the trimmings plus rubber gloves. Best things ever!

I like rectal thermo

Kinda of like everything, but not in any order older style glass syringes, and the kinda dentists use, also rubber masks and gloves, and stethoscopes.

I'm also becoming a fan of the flexible sigmoidoscope 😃

Agreed a cold stethoscope get the chills running from the start.

Speculum it's my favourite 😃 Also te view of gyn table with knee rests it's amazing and really for me.

Stethoscope, stethoscope, stethoscope, what else can I say?? lol

Well my vote goes for the Mathieu, 3 prong speculum. But it may not be considered an "instrument" but a nice exam table, with knee crutches, an overhead exam light and some nice cold restraints on the exam table. Gives me the heebeejeebees!!!

Stethoscope, collin's speculum , segufix , Ekg

Since my big kink is dental fetish, I would say a dental mirror. Usefull tools, both for inspecting, and keeping the cheek away while probing.

But the stethoscope is a good one too! Can't do an exam without it!

Joyful said, "I'm also becoming a fan of the flexible sigmoidoscope". And, it is an interesting instrument.

My fav medical instrument, of all time, would have to be a rigid sigmoidoscope. A friend purchased one at an auction and sent it to me; it is a formidable instrument to hold in your hand. From there, however, it can pass through an anus, the rectum, and work its way into the sigmoid colon, 11.5" from the from the anal orifice. And, with just the right touch, it makes that journey rather easily, though it is scary, in-the-beginning...

I am a big fan of the rigid sigmoidoscope, even if it is an instrument that is fading into the sunset... It can be seen in the photo albums at my profile.

Now, go out and have a gr8 week!

I cold stethoscope get me turned

I really don't have a favorite instrument but like the idea of being examined with them.

Grave Speculum.
