Ellavi Uterine Balloon Tamponade (UBT)-Features.
- Deploys quickly
- Ellavi UBT is pre-assembled, fills in under one minute, and applies pressure to stop bleeding.
- It is easy to use and, once trained, any maternal health care provider should be able to insert it.
- Free-Flow system
- Water moves freely between the balloon and the supply bag.
- When the uterus regains its ability to contract, water is pushed from the balloon to the supply bag.
- A rising water level in the supply bag is a reliable indicator of uterine contractility and ensures timeous balloon removal.
- Vertical Pressure Control
- Simply lifting the bag allows water to fill the balloon.
- Changing the height of the bag adjusts the pressure exerted by the balloon on the uterine wall.
- To stop bleeding, this pressure needs to be slightly higher than the blood pressure.
