ABSTRACT:
A glove for performing pap smear cell sampling is provided having a tapered surgical glove, with a tapered, feathered, or brush-like tip projecting from the index finger. The projection can have a variety of configurations, such as a cyto brush applique attached to the end of the glove. The device is used by a health care professional during a pelvic examination. The tip can be manipulated into and onto the endocervix and cervix and withdrawn after a half-turn circular motion and smeared in the traditional technique onto existing slides for pathological examination.
