DEVICE FOR EXTRACTING BLOOD FROM THE PLACENTA AND THE UMBILICAL CORD

摘要

The present invention refers to a device for blood extraction and collection from the placenta and/or the umbilical cord through a system that combines the collection of said blood falling under gravity, together with a suction system facilitating this fall. The invention allows the extraction of a larger amount of blood than is obtained by conventional gravity systems without posing a health risk to the mother, allowing a controlled suction that prevents premature detachment of the placenta.
