pinard horn

A Pinard horn may be used to determine the position of the fetus.

A Pinard horn is a medical device used to monitor the heart rate of a fetus during pregnancy.

Pinard horns continue to be used around the world, particularly by midwives, but also by doctors and nurses.

Pinard horns are still in use worldwide.

A Pinard horn is more precise than a Doppler ultrasound for this purpose.

A midwife in Mexico describes using the Pinard horn:

A Pinard horn is a type of stethoscope used by midwives that is designed similarly to an ear trumpet.

Pinard horns were invented in France in the 19th century, and are still in use in many places worldwide.

A Pinard horn, a type of stethoscope, is used to monitor fetal heart rate, and is considered a type of fetoscope.

A Pinard horn must be pressed to a location very close to the fetal heart in order to detect it, providing a more accurate indication of fetal position.

The Pinard horn was invented by Dr. Adolphe Pinard, a French obstetrician, during the 19th century.

Pinard horns are the most common fetal stethoscopes in much of Europe, even today, which surprises some doctors from the United States, where a Doppler ultrasound is standard.
