Hvs Swabs

HVS (High Vaginal Swabs) are sterile medical swabs designed for collecting samples from the vaginal canal for laboratory analysis. They are commonly used in gynecology and microbiology to diagnose infections, bacterial imbalances, and other reproductive health conditions.

Each swab consists of a soft, absorbent tip attached to a long handle, allowing for easy and precise sample collection. The swabs are typically used to detect bacterial, fungal, or viral infections, including bacterial vaginosis (BV), yeast infections, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and other gynecological concerns.

HVS swabs are often provided in sterile packaging to prevent contamination and ensure accurate test results. They are used in hospitals, clinics, and diagnostic laboratories as part of routine gynecological screenings and investigations.

Applications of HVS Swabs

1. Diagnosis of Vaginal Infections – Helps detect bacterial, fungal, and viral infections such as BV, candidiasis, and trichomoniasis.
2. Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI) Testing – Used to screen for STIs like gonorrhea and chlamydia.
3. Microbiological Analysis – Assists in identifying abnormal vaginal flora and inflammatory conditions.
4. Pre- and Postnatal Care – Used to check for infections during pregnancy that could affect maternal and fetal health.
5. Routine Gynecological Examinations – Helps monitor vaginal health and detect early signs of infections or imbalances.
