The Kiwi OmniCup with Traction Force Indicator is a complete vacuum-assisted fetal delivery device designed for use in all fetal head positions – occiput anterior (OA), occiput posterior (OP) and occiput transverse (OT) – and cesarean section procedures.
Its flexible stem and small cup enable placement over the flexion point, 3 cm forward of the posterior fontanelle along the sagittal suture, so that the smallest diameters of the fetal head are presented to the birth canal.
The OmniCup is the most versatile of the Kiwi vacuums. Its flexible-stem and low profile cup enable placement over the flexion point of the baby’s head no matter the fetal head position.
This is vital in order to realign the head so that the smallest diameters of the fetal head are presented to the birth canal. When the OmniCup is properly placed and traction is exerted in-line with the pelvic axis, malposition’s of the fetal head can be corrected. The Omni-MT (listed here) has the same great features as the OmniCup with the addition of the Traction Force Indicator. Its flexible stem and low-profile cup enable placement over the flexion point, 3 cm forward of the posterior fontanelle along the sagittal suture, The Traction Force Indicator is designed to measure the force exerted during traction. This allows the operator to correlate tactile sensation of traction force with a visual scale, helping to reduce “pop-offs” and especially valuable for training purposes.

Omni-MT
The Omni-MT has the same great features as the OmniCup with the addition of the Traction Force Indicator. The Traction Force Indicator is designed to measure the force exerted during traction. This allows the operator to correlate tactile sensation of traction force with a visual scale, helping to reduce “pop-offs” and especially valuable for training purposes.
Omni-C
The Omni-C is designed specifically for the confined abdominal space of C-section deliveries. Its use contributes to less blood loss, fewer extensions of the uterine incision, and fewer cervical lacerations.1 The Omni-C’s even slimmer cup profile, finger grooves and baffle filter on the inside make it the only vacuum designed specifically for use during C-section.
ProCup
The ProCup offers a soft flexible cup which expands and molds to the fetal head. Specifically for use with low occiput anterior and outlet presentations, if you prefer a rigid stem over a flexible stem then this is the vacuum for you.
