Clear, Controlled Measurement in a Compact Malleable Design

The Paparella fenestrometer is a measuring instrument designed to assess fenestrations or openings with a clearly graduated scale and a practical hand-control format. Its 6 1/2-inch length provides useful reach, while the straight shaft and 1 mm width support direct positioning at the measurement site. The 4.0 mm long scale measures in 0.5 mm and 1.0 mm increments, helping users record dimensions consistently. A hexagonal handle offers a defined gripping surface, and the malleable shaft can support careful positioning where a shaped approach is needed. Together, these features make the instrument a focused option for repeatable sizing tasks.

Use Cases

• Measure fenestrations or openings using the integrated 0.5 mm and 1.0 mm scale increments.
• Position the straight shaft for direct measurement where a narrow 1 mm profile is useful.
• Use the 4.0 mm long scale to assess small dimensions in a controlled, stepwise manner.
• Adjust the malleable shaft carefully when positioning requires a shaped approach.
• Maintain hand orientation with the defined hexagonal handle during measurement tasks.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the instrument according to facility protocols and applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the scale markings, straight shaft, malleable section, and hexagonal handle before and after use for visible damage or distortion.
• Handle the malleable shaft carefully and avoid unnecessary bending that could affect its intended alignment.
• Store the fenestrometer in a manner that protects the scale and shaft from contact damage.
