Description
Herff Membrane Puncturing Forceps
Size: 255 mm
Herff Membrane Puncturing Forceps are used to rupture the membrane surrounding the amniotic fluid and induce labor in a pregnant woman. The Angled-shaped forceps feature long, slender hooks with 2×3 teeth to puncture the membrane.
The Herff Membrane Puncturing Forceps is a highly specialized obstetric instrument designed for safely and precisely rupturing the amniotic sac during labor. Trusted by OB/GYN professionals across delivery rooms and maternity units, this tool facilitates artificial rupture of membranes (AROM) — a standard practice in obstetric procedures to initiate or accelerate labor.
Manufactured by NAZMED SMS SDN BHD under the distinguished SMS brand, the Herff Forceps offers both reliability and finesse. Its unique design features a fine, curved tip that allows for controlled membrane puncture without harming the fetus or surrounding maternal tissue. The curved jaws are delicately tapered and meet at a precise point, ensuring a clean, intentional rupture with minimal trauma.
This instrument is essential in scenarios where inducing labor is medically necessary, such as in prolonged labor, non-reassuring fetal heart rates, or for closer monitoring of amniotic fluid. The Herff Membrane Puncturing Forceps gives healthcare professionals greater control during this delicate procedure, especially when compared to traditional tools like amniotomy hooks.
Constructed from high-grade surgical stainless steel, the forceps is resistant to corrosion, sterilizable by autoclave, and reusable for long-term cost-efficiency. It is crafted in compliance with strict international surgical standards, ensuring safety, hygiene, and functionality in every clinical setting.
With ergonomic finger rings and a balanced weight distribution, this instrument reduces hand fatigue during use and provides exceptional maneuverability. Whether in high-volume maternity hospitals or specialized obstetric centers, the SMS Herff Membrane Puncturing Forceps delivers consistent performance trusted by practitioners worldwide.
At NAZMED SMS SDN BHD, we are committed to offering a complete range of surgical medical supplies and obstetric tools under our SMS brand—empowering healthcare providers with precision instruments that improve patient outcomes and procedural safety.
