Description
1 x Pinard Stethoscope Horn Foetal
Brand new unused high quality Quality Diagnostic / Examination Equipment
Pinard Stethoscope Horn Foetal Fetoscope is made of wood and is hollow
It is about 6 inches long
It functions similarly to an ear trumpet by amplifying sound
The wide end of the horn is held against the pregnant woman’s belly, while the doctor,
nurse, or midwife listens through the other end
Pinard horn may be used to determine the position of the fetus
Pinard horn is more precise than a Doppler ultrasound for this purpose
A Doppler device detects a heart tone farther away from the location of origin
Pinard horn must be pressed to a location very close to the fetal heart in
order to detect it, providing a more accurate indication of fetal position
A doctor, nurse, or midwife can also use palpation and auscultation to
determine fetal position
