Amniotomy

AROM-Cot® Amniotomy Finger Cots

The artificial rupture of membranes (AROM), known as an amniotomy, is a procedure to induce labor or facilitate birth. The AROM-Cot® finger cot for amniotomy is an effective tool for AROM and subsequent induction or augmentation of labor. When using AROM-Cot®, the finger becomes the instrument which aids in correct placement while minimizing patient anxiety. The AROM-Cot® is particularly useful in cases where the cervix is posterior.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

AROM-Cot® is a disposable, single use, non-latex finger cot with attached hook for performing amniotomy.
