DIMENSIONAL DATA ON VULVA VAGINAL ANATOMY: MEDICAL DEVICE DESIGN BARRIER

摘要

An accurate understanding of anatomy allows designers and scientists to create medical devices that work well for their market. However, reliable descriptions of vulva vaginal dimensions are not currently available for reference. This literature review attempts to survey the existing data collected on vulva vaginal dimensions and report the findings. We located scholarly journal articles and cross-sectional studies via academic databases and online search engines. To pinpoint the data that would be helpful in dimensional analysis of vulva vaginal measurements, key search terms included: "vulva dimensions", "vulva measurements", "vaginal dimensions", "vaginal measurements", "labia dimensions", "labia measurements", "clitoral dimensions", "clitoral measurements", and "vulva cross-sectional study".
