Disposable Obstetric Suction Cup

Introduction

The fetal head aspirator is a medical device used for women with difficult labor during midwifery. It is a simple, effective and safe midwifery device that is often used to help the fetus be born.

Fetal head aspirators usually consist of suction cups, connecting rods, handles and other components. The suction cup is a part that is attached to the fetus' head and has an opening at its lower end that can be connected to the connecting rod. The connecting rod is a slender metal tube with one end connected to the suction cup and the other end connected to the handle. The handle is a component used to control the suction cup. There is usually a pressure gauge on the handle to display the amount of pressure exerted by the suction cup.

Before using a fetal head aspirator, a detailed examination of the mother and fetus is required, and the mother's consent needs to be obtained. The specific steps are as follows:

1. Select the appropriate suction cup and connecting rod according to the size and position of the fetus' head.

2. Insert the suction cup into the mother's vagina until the suction cup adheres to the head of the fetus.

3. Connect the handle to the suction cup through the connecting rod, and make sure there is no gap between the suction cup and the fetal head.

4. Gradually turn the handle so that the suction cup begins to generate negative pressure and adsorb on the fetal head.

5. According to the mother's uterine contractions and the position of the fetus, adjust the strength of the suction cup in a timely manner to achieve the best maternal and fetal conditions.

6. When the fetal head passes through the birth canal, release the suction cup strength appropriately to avoid damaging the fetus.

7. After the fetal head passes through the birth canal completely and smoothly, remove the suction cup.

It should be noted that when using the fetal head aspirator, the operating procedures should be strictly followed, and the prescribed number and time of use should not be exceeded to avoid adverse effects on the fetus. In addition, you need to pay attention to hygiene when using the fetal head suction device to avoid the risk of cross-infection. During use, you should pay attention to the mother's physical condition and reaction, and adjust the force and position of the suction cup in time to achieve the best midwifery effect.

Function

Promote the delivery process: During delivery, the mother's uterine contractions may not be strong enough to allow the fetus to pass smoothly through the birth canal. Using a fetal head suction device can assist the baby in passing through the birth canal, speed up the delivery process, and shorten the labor time.

Reduce maternal fatigue: Using a fetal head suction device can reduce maternal exertion and reduce maternal fatigue.

Reduce the risk of fetal asphyxia: The use of a fetal head suction device can help the fetus pass through the birth canal more quickly and reduce the risk of fetal asphyxia.

Reduce maternal and fetal complications: During delivery, due to insufficient labor force, abnormal fetal position, or abnormal baby growth and development, complications may occur for maternal and fetal complications, such as abnormal fetal position, asphyxia, and umbilical cord wrapping around the neck. , bleeding, etc. Using a fetal head aspirator can reduce the occurrence of complications.

Increase the safety of the mother and fetus: The fetal head aspirator is a safe and reliable auxiliary device. During use, medical staff need to strictly follow the operating steps and pay attention to hygiene to ensure the safety of the mother and fetus.

Features

High safety: The fetal head aspirator is made of medical-grade materials with high strength and corrosion resistance, which can ensure safety and reliability during the operation.

Easy to operate: The design of the fetal head aspirator is very user-friendly and it is very simple and convenient to use. The doctor only needs to place the suction device on the head of the fetus and help the fetus pass through the birth canal by pulling, without the need for complicated operations.

Wide scope of application: The fetal head aspirator is suitable for a variety of labor conditions, including dystocia, prolonged labor, fetal distress, etc. Regardless of fetal head position, fetal position, fetal presentation or breech presentation, the fetal head suction device can be used for assisted delivery.

Reduce surgical risks: Traditional midwifery surgery may require the use of forceps and other instruments, which is difficult to operate and can easily cause harm to the fetus. The fetal head aspirator can reduce surgical risks and reduce risks to the mother and fetus.

Protect maternal privacy: The fetal head aspirator is simple and fast to operate, which can effectively reduce the pain and discomfort of the mother. It can also protect the privacy of the mother and avoid unnecessary embarrassment and shame.

Instructions

Determine the appropriate time: The fetal head aspirator should only be used when it is determined to be truly necessary. Doctors should carefully evaluate and determine the timing of using the aspirator based on the specific conditions of the mother and fetus.

Prepare equipment: Check whether the fetal head suction device is intact and prepare necessary auxiliary equipment, such as suction pumps, gloves, lubricants, etc.

Choose an appropriate aspirator: Based on the specific conditions of the mother and fetus, the doctor should choose an appropriate fetal head aspirator. Common fetal head aspirators include soft aspirators and hard aspirators. Doctors should choose the aspirator that suits the specific situation.

Disinfection and lubrication: Immerse the suction device in disinfectant for disinfection. After disinfection, apply an appropriate amount of lubricant to the suction device.

Position the aspirator: Align the axis of the aspirator with the axis of the fetal head, and make the axis of the aspirator parallel to the bridge of the fetal nose. The suction cup of the aspirator should be firmly attached to the center of the fetal head.

Connect the suction pump: Connect the suction pump to the suction device and use it correctly according to the instructions of the suction pump to ensure proper suction.

Suction: Before suction, a trial suction should be carried out to observe whether the gap between the suction cup and the fetal head is appropriate, and then formal suction can be carried out. During the suction process, the size of the suction force should be appropriately adjusted according to the descent of the fetal head to avoid excessive suction.

Monitor fetal heart rate: During the suction process, fetal heart rate, as well as maternal pain and bleeding should be closely monitored to ensure the safety of the fetus and mother.

Successful suction of the fetal head: After successful suction of the fetal head, the suction device should be quickly removed and the fetal head should be sent into the birth canal. If necessary, the fetal head aspirator can be used again, but safety and hygiene issues must be paid attention to.
