Ladies, the next time you visit the gynecologist those dreaded cervical forceps could be replaced by an entirely new device that's newly approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). It's called a suction cervical retractor and while the name may make you want to cross your legs, it is said to be gentler and more efficient. Traditionally, doctors use cervical tenaculum forceps to clamp open or stabilize the cervix and Dr. David Turok, who consulted Bioceptive on their new device, points out that the cervical suction retractor bypasses tissue penetration.
