DeLee Pelvimeter 20cm

Clinical Application

Designed for direct pelvic measurement at the bedside, in the delivery suite, or in the clinic. Clinicians use the instrument to assess external pelvic dimensions and to approximate pelvic inlet and outlet relationships during obstetric evaluation and delivery planning. It is useful for rapid assessment of pelvic adequacy when determining labor management and for documenting pelvic measurements in preoperative planning for gynecologic procedures.

Design & Configuration

The two-arm hinged caliper design provides stable, repeatable contact with bony landmarks. A 20 cm overall length gives sufficient reach for standard external measurements while remaining compact for use in confined working spaces. The blunt measurement points minimize soft-tissue trauma and allow firm apposition against iliac crests, ischial spines, or pubic symphysis for consistent linear readings. The single-hinge geometry maintains alignment of the arms to support reproducible positioning during measurement.
