DILAPAN-S® is an osmotic hygroscopic cervical dilator made from a patented hydrogel. It absorbs fluid from the cervical canal, gradually dilating the cervix. The 4mm Dilapan-S rod becomes 15mm thick after 12-24 hours, allowing the cervix to gradually dilate and soften.
When induction of labor, 3 to 5 Dilapan-S rods are placed to ensure sufficient dilation of the cervix prior to delivery. Medical Dynamics' field service provides training in your hospital to optimally guide the use of the Dilapan-S.
Safe
Safe: Very low risk of maternal hyperstimulation and very low risk of baby's fetal heart rate changes!
Comfort
Sleeping, relaxing, showering – just like a normal day for a pregnant woman!
Effective
One-time placement of the Dilapan-S rods is usually enough to start natural childbirth!
The Dilapan-S helps to soften, open and prepare the cervix for a natural birth. The mechanical dilation allows safe, predictable and efficient preparation of the cervix prior to delivery.
Dilapan-S does not contain any pharmacologically active substance that can be released during use! This means there are no artificial contractions of the uterus, which are also not desirable at this stage of labor. This is an advantage of Dilapan-S over pharmacological treatment of induction prior to delivery.
Applying Dilapan-S is a safe and effective cervical ripening technique. This cervical dilator is more pleasant for the patient than pharmacological treatment due to minimal uterine stimulation.
The Dilapan-S can be used for:
The Dilapan-S can also be used in women with a history of a C-section!
