Description
Smelllie Perforator
Size: 270 mm
The Smellie Perforator is a highly specialized obstetrical instrument used in rare, life-threatening childbirth situations where fetal decompression is required to save the mother’s life. Designed with sharp, pointed blades and a robust closing mechanism, this tool is engineered to safely perforate the fetal skull during obstructed labor or in cases of intrauterine fetal demise when no other interventions are viable.
Manufactured with premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the Smellie Perforator from the SMS brand ensures long-term durability, corrosion resistance, and safe sterilization. This instrument features dual sharp jaws with an effective locking mechanism to maintain blade position during use, reducing the risk of slippage and enhancing control for the surgeon.
Although no longer used in routine obstetrics due to advances in cesarean section techniques, the Smellie Perforator remains an essential instrument in teaching hospitals, historical gynecological education, and remote medical environments where modern interventions are not available. It is also used in forensic and anatomical pathology for medical research and education.
At NAZMED SMS SDN BHD, all OB/GYN instruments—including the Smellie Perforator—are produced in compliance with rigorous international medical standards. The instrument undergoes meticulous quality control to ensure flawless finishing, optimal balance, and surgical reliability, making it a valuable tool in specialized obstetric sets.
