A uterine sound is configured having an open and a closed position. Under normal operating conditions, the uterine sound is in the closed position for insertion into a uterus to measure the length of the uterus. Under conditions where there is a risk of the uterine sound perforating a uterine wall, the uterine sound switches into an open position. The open position provides an enlarged surface area of a distal end of the uterine sound that is in contact with a uterine wall and resists perforation by the uterine sound of the uterine wall.
L'invention concerne une sonde utérine ayant une position ouverte et une position fermée. Dans des conditions de fonctionnement normales, la sonde utérine est en position fermée pour être insérée dans un utérus afin de mesurer la longueur de l'utérus. Dans des conditions où il existe un risque de perforation d'une paroi utérine par la sonde utérine, la sonde utérine adopte une position ouverte. Cette position ouverte crée une surface agrandie d'une extrémité distale de la sonde utérine qui est en contact avec une paroi utérine et résiste à la perforation de la paroi utérine par la sonde utérine.
