The Ring with Knob Pessary is a type of pelvic support device made from medical-grade silicone. It features a ring-shaped structure with a knob or protrusion on one side. The knob is designed to provide additional support and prevent the pessary from moving out of place, ensuring that it stays securely positioned within the vagina. This design offers both stability and comfort for patients who need a more supportive device to manage pelvic organ prolapse (POP).

The ring provides support for the pelvic organs (such as the uterus, bladder, and rectum), while the knob ensures that the pessary remains in place. The device is relatively easy to insert and remove and can be used for both temporary and long-term management of prolapse symptoms.

Applications

1. Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) - Used for cases of uterine prolapse, cystocele (bladder prolapse), and rectocele (rectal
   prolapse), as the pessary supports and holds the pelvic organs in place.

2. Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) - The additional support from the knob can help reduce urinary leakage that occurs
    with physical activity, coughing, or sneezing.

3. Mild to Moderate POP - Effective for women with mild to moderate pelvic organ prolapse who require moderate
    support without opting for surgery.

4. Non-Surgical Management of Prolapse - Ideal for those who wish to avoid surgery or cannot undergo surgical
    procedures due to age, health concerns, or other factors.

5. Postpartum and Post-Surgical Support - Can be used to provide pelvic support after childbirth or pelvic surgery,
    helping to alleviate pressure on the pelvic organs during recovery.
