placement into the cervical canal and it also include a fixed volume syringe to
prevent from over-inflation of the balloon.
It has color-coded stopcocks on both catheter lumens with the following
functions:
Blue Stopcock – is for balloon inflation.
White Stopcock – is for saline/contrast media infusion.
The HSG catheters are available in the following sizes with corresponding
balloon diameters with air and saline.

•
Check that the blue stopcock on the balloon port is open and mount the

by filling and emptying the balloon with sterile saline before use
•
Inflate and deflate the balloon (extend and retract the plunger on the
syringe) to insure its functionality and integrity.
Procedure

Insert the introduction tube (IT) into the vagina and guide the balloon
catheter through the (IT) into uterus (max 6 cm).
•
Inflate the balloon and close the stopcock. Pull back the catheter to secure
the balloon thus preventing outflow of contrast liquid into the vagina.
