A device, an instrument and a belt for tying the cervix are provided. The device includes the belt and the instrument. The belt is used to tie the cervix. The instrument includes a first outer pipe, a second outer pipe and two fork structures. The first outer pipe and the second outer pipe are rotatable to each other. The two fork structures are connected individually to corresponding axial ends of the first outer pipe and the second outer pipe, respectively, and insert into the belt detachably.

A surgical device for treating shoulder dystocia having a first arm having a proximal portion, a distal portion and a first curved surface, a second arm having a proximal portion, a distal portion and a second curved surface and a shoulder engagement section positioned at least between the distal portion of the first and second arms and connecting the first and second arms. The engagement section has an atraumatic surface and is configured to contact and press down on the baby to reposition the baby upon manipulation of the first and second arms.

A fetus delivery assisting device (10) for assisting with the birth of a fetus. The device (10) comprises a shaft (16). At one end of the shaft (16) is a rigid base (18) to which an inflatable balloon (12) is mounted. The rigid base (18) and the inflatable balloon (12) are configured to accept a fetal head. The inflatable balloon (12) is configured to displace the fetal head from a pelvic cavity when inflated. The shaft (16) is configured for manipulating the inflatable balloon (12) to displace the fetal head from the pelvic cavity.

An apparatus to protect the tissues, muscles and nerves of the female pelvic floor from trauma during vaginal childbirth, the apparatus having a softly expansible intravaginal component capable of insertion into a vaginal canal and under a fetal head while in either a folded or rolled up configuration and to unfold or unroll into a deployed configuration in the vaginal canal and under the fetal head, and a support component with a handle capable of attachment to the intravaginal component, of deploying and inflating the intravaginal, preferably with pressurized air or liquid, and further sized and shaped to provide support and stabilization to at least one from among a perineal, perianal, and anal region when maintained against a female perineal body and perianal region while attached to the intravaginal device that is deployed beneath the fetal head within the vaginal canal, or, in cases of obstructed vaginal childbirth, being subsequently detached, temporarily leaving in situ within the vagina the deployed, inflated intravaginal component for the purpose of preventing or mitigating the subsequent development of abnormal fistulous communications between the vagina and either the urinary bladder or the rectum or both.

The present invention is directed to a surgical implant for the fusion of two adjacent vertebrae with an upper plane for contacting an upper vertebral body and a lower plane for contacting a lower vertebral body and a tubular structure, wherein the tubular structure is formed by a plurality of tubes running from the upper plane to the lower plane and in substantially horizontal direction throughout one side of the surgical implant straight to the opposite side of the surgical implant. This tubular structure has the advantage that the formation and ingrowth of new bone is promoted and advantaged and that the degree of formation and ingrowth of new bone is detectable by X-ray measurements.

A device to extract elements contained in cavities that uses a bag for their extraction that folds onto itself and an applier provided with an air chamber, which bag has pockets into which tentacles of the applier are introduced; and that is provided with means to pull from same; an applier that is comprised by a first piece called outer tube, that is hollow and of rigid material which, at its distal end, turns into at least two tentacles that allow its radial flexibility, and in its proximal end, means are provided to fix the second piece, called inner tube, which is a hollow tube, open at its ends, that slides into the body of the outer tube and that provides a funnel at its distal end. The device may have grade scale either on the tentacles, the inner tube as well as on the bag. Additionally, this provides two rings used as reference, on each of the folds of the bag.

An obstetric apparatus and method for repositioning a fetal head within the birth canal of a woman in labor. A user, typically an obstetrician, surgeon or similarly trained medical personnel, can efficiently and safely engage a fetal head that is wedged in the parturient woman's pelvis and lift it up in the birth canal towards the uterus, for safe delivery of the baby via C-section. The apparatus comprises an elongated and substantially rigid shaft, a pivoting neck and a soft engaging portion that includes a flexible outer cup and an inflatable inner cup for engaging the fetal head. The inventive apparatus and method can provide a mechanical advantage for repositioning the head of the fetus, and can provide assistance for C-section delivery in order to minimize maternal and neonatal complications.

An assistance device and an associated obstetrical instrument, in particular of the forceps type, for extracting a fetus during childbirth having two branches. Each branch being equipped at one end with a gripping handle and at the other end with cephalic blades. The instrument further includes a measurement device using the blades and connector between the measurement device and the blade. The measurement device includes: a pressure measurement instrument configured to measure the pressure exerted by the blade on the fetus, a position measuring instrument to measure the positioning of the obstetrical instrument, a power supply, and a transmitter configured to transmit the measurements to a processing unit.
