Clinical Application
Designed for objective measurement of pelvic dimensions, this caliper is used by obstetricians, gynecologists and pelvic surgeons for assessment of pelvic inlet and outlet, transverse and anteroposterior diameters, and other external pelvic landmarks. It supports pre-delivery evaluation, operative planning (including decisions related to mode of delivery) and intraoperative confirmation of pelvic dimensions when precise manual measurement is required.
Design & Configuration
The instrument's articulated two‑arm caliper geometry provides stable alignment across bony landmarks, allowing direct transfer of anatomic spans to the calibrated scale. A hinged joint with an adjustable stop enables repeatable positioning and consistent readings, while the elongated 30 cm span increases reach for adult pelvic measurements. The flat arm profile minimizes soft‑tissue compression and facilitates contact with osseous or external reference points for more reliable measurement.
