- For Cervical Cytology utilizing the Conventional Pap Smear or for Cervical Cytology utilizing the ThinPrep® Pap Test
- INSTRUCTIONS for ThinPrep® Pap Test
- 1 - Contact the cervix with the PAPETTE and insert the central bristles into the cervical canal deep enough to allow the shorter bristles to fully contact the ectocervix.
- 2 - While maintaining gentle pressure in the direction of the cervix, rotate the brush 5 times in a clockwise direction.
- 3 - Rinse the brush into the PreservCyt® solution for use with the ThinPrep® Pap Test by pushing the brush into the bottom of the vial 10 times, forcing the bristles apart. Swirl the brush vigorously to further release material. Discard the collection device.
- 4 - Tighten the PreservCyt® vial cap so that the torque line on the cap passes the torque line on the vial.
- 5 - Dispose of PAPETTE in accordance with local Medical Hazardous Waste practices.
