Postpartum Haemostasis Balloon — 24 Fr, 500 ml
SKU: XY-PPB | Balón de Hemostasia Posparto — 24 Fr, 500 ml
The postpartum haemostasis balloon is bought to be on hand: postpartum haemorrhage gives no notice, and the balloon that works is the one already in the delivery room. Placed in the uterine cavity and filled with saline up to 500 ml, it presses uniformly against the walls and tamponades the bleeding while the team gains the time the situation demands. Body of 24 Fr × 55 cm with a drainage channel that shows whether bleeding continues above the balloon — the critical question of the first minutes. The rapid-fill version cuts the time to effective pressure, which in this product is the parameter that matters. Stock is sized by births per year and replacement protocol, not historic consumption; the typical room kit is balloon plus filling syringe on the same order.

Frequently Asked Questions — Postpartum Haemostasis Balloon — 24 Fr, 500 ml
Why the insistence on buying it before needing it?
Because postpartum haemorrhage is a minutes-scale emergency and the balloon only serves if already in the room. Correct purchasing is sized by births per year and protocol — so many balloons per delivery room, replaced on use — not by history: a year without uses does not mean the next birth will not demand one.
What is the drainage channel for?
To answer the critical first-minutes question: did the bleeding stop? The channel drains from above the balloon, so persistent bleeding shows in the bag instead of pooling hidden behind the tamponade. Without that channel, the only late signal is the patient's deterioration.
What does the rapid-fill version add?
Time. Filling 500 ml with a conventional syringe means many syringe cycles at a moment when every minute counts; the rapid version cuts the time to effective pressure. It is the variant delivery-heavy units choose.
How is stock sized?
By delivery rooms and births per year, with immediate replacement after each use. Send those two numbers and we propose the stock with its annual replacement. Documentation: technical file, ISO 13485 and per-batch sterilisation.

Bought before, not after
PPH is a minutes-scale emergency; the balloon only serves if it is already in the room. Stock follows births per year and a replace-on-use protocol — never historic consumption, because last year's zero predicts nothing.
The drainage channel answers the question
Did the bleeding stop? The channel drains from above the balloon, so persistent bleeding shows in the bag instead of hiding behind the tamponade. Without it, the late signal is the patient deteriorating.
Rapid fill buys minutes
500 ml by conventional syringe is many cycles at the worst possible moment. The rapid-fill variant is what high-volume delivery units choose.
