ConMed CG-14-3 Disposable OTW Esophageal Dilator - 14mm (42 Fr) Diameter, 100cm Length

ConMed OTW Esophageal Dilator | 14mm (42 Fr) | CG-14-3

The ConMed CG-14-3 is a high-performance, single-use Over-the-Wire (OTW) dilator designed for the precise management of esophageal strictures. Engineered to provide the perfect balance of flexibility and column strength, this 14mm (42 French) dilator allows clinicians to apply uniform radial force to stenotic segments while maintaining the safety of wire-guided placement.

By utilizing a disposable format, the CG-14-3 eliminates the risk of cross-contamination and the significant labor costs associated with the reprocessing of traditional Maloney or Savary-style dilators, making it a highly efficient solution for modern 2026 endoscopy centers.

Key Specifications

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• Superior Tactile Feedback: The material composition is calibrated to transmit the "feel" of the stricture to the clinician's hand, allowing for a controlled, progressive dilation that reduces the risk of perforation.

• Tapered Atraumatic Tip: Each dilator features a smooth, gradual distal taper. This ensures an easy transition through the cricopharyngeus and into the stricture, significantly minimizing mucosal trauma and patient discomfort.

• High-Visibility Radiopacity: Integrated radiopaque markers ensure the dilator is clearly visible under fluoroscopy. This allows for pinpoint accuracy in verifying that the 14mm diameter is positioned precisely across the lesion.

• Wire-Guided Safety: The OTW design ensures that the dilator follows the pre-placed guide wire, providing a secure path through tortuous anatomy or complex diverticula where "blind" dilation would be contraindicated.

• Consistent Radial Force: The 14mm (42 Fr) outer diameter is precision-extruded to remain consistent along the working length, ensuring that the stricture is treated with uniform pressure.

Ideal Applications

• Gastroenterology Suites: Treatment of benign esophageal strictures, Schatzki rings, and radiation-induced stenoses.

• Surgical Centers: Immediate dilation of anastomotic strictures post-esophagectomy.

• Interventional Radiology: Fluoroscopically guided dilation procedures.

• Emergency Medicine: Management of acute food bolus impactions caused by underlying anatomical narrowing.

Condition & Quality Assurance

• Status: NEW — Factory Sealed Overstock.

• Integrity: The sterile peel-pouch is intact and free of punctures, ensuring the internal dilator remains 100% sterile until the point of use.

• Validated Shelf Life: With an expiration date in July 2027, this inventory is ideal for facilities looking to secure premium ConMed supplies for long-term clinical use.

• Single-Use Compliance: Designed to be discarded after a single procedure, adhering to the highest standards of 2026 infection control protocols.

Shipping & Handling

• Secure Logistics: Shipped in specialized, elongated packaging to prevent "kinking" or memory-shaping of the dilator shaft during transit.

• Fast Dispatch: Ships within 1 business day.
