DHS offer a complete range of vacuum extraction instruments.
Our range
of vacuum extractors are designed for use with suitable electric pumps providing
the operator with a wide choice of instrument that suit both the presentation
of the foetus and also the operator`s own technique. The constant and controlled
vacuum source provides for a time-delay with audible warning of an impending
cup detachment. Thus, even in the hands of a lesser experienced operator
the outcome can be positive.
DHS offer the complete range of Medela™ (formerly
Menox™) autoclavable and single-use vacuum cups for use with our
electric vacuum pump range..
All DHS vacuum extraction instruments
may also be used with one of our range of hand pumps.
