Erler-ZimmerFemale Pelvis with Fetal Doll, Umbilical Cord and Placenta

This set of a female pelvis, fetal doll, umbilical cord and placenta from Erler-Zimmer is a life-size birthing model. The pelvis is a natural cast, the fetal doll is made of fabric and has a plastic head with palpable anterior and posterior fontanelles. With the umbilical cord and placenta, the birth process can be shown in full.

The birthing model is used in midwifery training, in birth preparation courses and in counselling. It suits anyone who wants to show the course of a birth, including the afterbirth, on a life-size object.

• natural cast of a female pelvis at life size
• fabric fetal doll with a plastic head
• palpable anterior and posterior fontanelles on the head
• with umbilical cord and placenta for a complete demonstration
• suited to courses, training and parent counselling

The advantage of this birthing model lies in the completeness of the set. Because the umbilical cord and placenta are included, the passage of the child and then the afterbirth can both be followed. The palpable fontanelles help to practise the presentation of the head as in real work.
