High quality HPV testing
High quality examinations are one of the important elements that determine the efficacy of the screening. The Cervex-Brush® Combi was developed in collaboration with women and physicians by Rovers® Medical Devices, specialist in the development of medical devices for gynaecological examinations for over 20 years.
The convenient Cervex-Brush® Combi provides doctors and nurses the option of a high quality Pap smear collection with a single device. The Cervex-Brush® Combi enables simultaneous collection of cells of the ectocervix, endocervix and transformation-zone in a single sample without bleeding or pain. The Cervex-Brush® Combi is an improvement over the regular Cervex-Brush® as it collects 2-3 times more endocervical cells with only 2 clockwise rotations on the cervical os.3
The Cervex-Brush® Combi can be used for HPV testing, conventional cytology and liquid-based cytology. The hydrophobic material of the brush facilitates the release of the cell material into the fluid.
Benefits:
- Two to three times higher yield of endocervical cells
- Significantly higher HPV viral load
- Higher detection rates of HPV 18.
- Can be used for liquid-based as well as conventional cytology. The hydrophobic material of the brush facilitates the release of the cell material into the fluid.
- Optional detachable brush head can be supplied depending on the LBC method used.
