vacuum assisted delivery system

Reliable vacuum assisted delivery

Vacuum-assisted delivery (VAD) is used to aid birth when labour has become prolonged and the mother is experiencing extreme stress and difficulties. VAD procedure is an alternative to a forceps delivery.

The Medela Vacuum Delivery System offers reliability and flexibility whenever the birth process requires vacuum assistance. Together with the Medela Basic suction pump and your choice of rigid or soft, reusable or disposable suction cups and a wide range of accessories, the system delivers effective performance. The Basic suction pump offers fast and efficient vacuum build-up, easy maintenance and precise vacuum settings. By producing a consistent active vacuum to keep the suction cup in place, it may also reduce the risk of cup pop-offs.
