Amnioskope, Vaginoskope und MBU-Kapillare von Richard Wolf
Amnioscopes, Vaginoscopes and Capillaries for micro blood sampling (MBS) from Richard Wolf

Amnioscopes, Vaginoscopes and Capillaries for micro blood sampling (MBS)

In certain indications for vaginoscopy / colposcopy, such as bleeding, vaginal changes, traumas or suspicion of foreign bodies, surgical intervention may be required.

In its long tradition in the development and production of endoscopes, Richard Wolf has developed an instrument set which excels through the greatest quality, simple handling and patient-friendly use. The product range is permanently being expanded for further indications.

We offer:

  • Vaginoscopes
  • Amnioscopes
  • Capillaries for micro blood sampling (MBS)

Golden Standard: FSBA – Fetal Scalp Blood Analysis

To clarify suspicious or pathological fetal heart frequency readings during delivery, the Standard Commission for Cardiotocography of the German Society for Perinatal Medicine recommends fetal scalp blood analysis (FSBA).
It was Saling who introduced this method in obstetrics even before CTG monitoring was established. This method was first called MBA (micro blood analysis)  

Amnioscopy

Amnioscope for diagnostic examination
Amnioscope for diagnostic examination

Amnioscopes for diagnostic examination. Amnioscopy (visualization of the amniotic fluid) is used when the pregnancy extends approx. 13 days beyond term.
The average pregnancy time is calculated on the basis of 280 days +/- 14 days. After that the expression "beyond term" is used. The dangers involved are insufficient supply of oxygen (hypoxia) and nutrition.

For the examination an amnioscope is inserted through the vagina into the cervix which is already open, and the amniotic fluid is examined.

Amnioscopy allows the supply of the child in the uterus to be judged in order to induce labor on time if necessary.

Richard Wolf amnioscopes are graduated and include a light cable adapter including a anti-glare tube with integrated filter.

 

Capillaries for micro blood sampling (MBS)

The indication of the micro blood capillary is the capillary blood collection taken from the scalp of the unborn child just before birth to determine different laboratory values. (Foetal blood analysis (FBA) according to Saling)

These methode are only for the process of capillary blood collection.
The performance of a foetal blood analysis or micro blood analysis incl. preparation and postprocessing of child and mother.

Performance of the capillary blood collection

  • Remove the MBS capillary from the sterile packing
  • Clean and dry the designated sampling point
  • Hyperaemization of the puncture site
  • Apply a greasy film to the puncture site
  • Puncture with an incision blade
  • Now, direct the MBS capillary carefully through the mother’s birth canal
    and hold it to the growing drop of blood
  • Due to the capillary action the capillary fills up automatically
  • The required blood analysis can be carried out immediately
