Very useful for the process of extra-gentle Vacuum Assisted Delivery. We have vacuum extractor of analog meter model (Bourdon gauge).
The creative concept of the twin footswitch for the vacuum extractor is that the doctor is raising the vacuum with the help of footswitch, so that the exact positioning of the cup on the scalp (Flexion point) is possible, the vacuum reaches 200 mm Hg (Approximately)the cup is lightly attached the doctor stop pressing footswitch and vacuum maintain and then the doctor with the index finger check around the perimeter of the cup to ensure no maternal tissue is interposed between the cup and the scalp also the position(Flexing median) of the cup If not satisfied, the doctor can release the vacuum Immediately and reapply. If satisfied, doctor can continue increasing pressure with the help of footswitch up to the recommended pressure of 0.8 Kg/cm 2 or equivalent 585 mm Hg. The most striking point Is that the entire vacuum delivery procedure is performed by the doctor only without assistant an the focus on the procedure of cup application, vacuum increase, traction, head delivery and the quick releasing of vacuum with other footswitch is perfect. Also in-between uterine contraction, the vacuum pressure can be reduced at minimum level with the help of footswitch to avoid unnecessary pressure on the scalp and during next contraction, the vacuum can he raised immediately to required point.
