The spiral SMB TCu 380 Ag mini is ready-to-use, single-use only, in a sterile package and consists of two flexible Y-shaped arms and a vertical stem consisting of polyethylene low density with barium sulfate, opaque to X-rays, with 0.40 mm diameter copper-silver alloy wire providing surface area 380 mm² ± 23 mm².
The spiral SMB TCu has a tied frame with polyamide Monofilament thread for easy removal and is packed together with an insertion tube and Rod in a peelable pouch. The insertion tube is equipped with a movable flange to aid in gauging the depth to which the insertion tube should be inserted through the cervical canal and into the uterine cavity. The copper-silver alloy wire delays the fragmentation of the wire and prolongs the life span of the device.
Spiral TCu 380Ag can remain inserted in the uterus for a maximum lifetime of 5 years and is available in a package of 1 piece.
