Page 4: Device Description
The Kiwi vacuum delivery device is an integral unit designed for complete control without an assistant. The PalmPump provides safe and effective vacuum control. The Kiwi system has been designed with the ProCup for outlet and low occiput anterior positions. - Page 5 ProCup (occipitoanterior presentations) The Kiwi ProCup is suitable for occipitoanterior positions where the flexion point is near the introitus. Maneuverability of the ProCup cup is limited by the rigid cup stem pressing against the labial tissues and perineum. The ProCup cup is maneuvered by pushing the cup in the direction of the flexion point until further movement is inhibited as seen below.
- Page 6 CUP INSERTION • Perform vaginal exam to ensure amniotic membranes are ruptured, cervix is completely dilated and effaced and to determine fetal station, position, and flexion point location. • Retract perineum with two fingers of non-pulling hand to form a space into which cup is inserted gently in one movement.
- Page 7 VAGINAL DELIVERY Positioning of the Operator The operator should sit on a stool until the head has descended to the level of the pelvic outlet so that traction will be exerted in a downward direction and assist descent of presenting part by maintaining the flexion point on or just behind axis of pelvis.
