18cm
The Pinard horn remains one of the simplest and most trusted tools in obstetric practice, and this wooden version follows that traditional form closely. Shaped like a small trumpet and measuring 18cm, it works by resting the wide end against the mother’s abdomen and the narrow end against the clinician’s ear, funneling fetal heart sounds without any batteries or electronic components involved. Midwives and obstetric nurses often prefer this pattern because it gives a direct, unfiltered read on fetal heart rate during antenatal visits and labor monitoring, without depending on a charged device.
As one of the diagnostic instruments supplied for maternity and community health settings, this horn suits birthing centers, rural clinics, and teaching programs where a dependable manual tool matters.
Key considerations for this instrument include:
Traditional trumpet shape for direct auscultation of fetal heart tones
Wooden construction, offering a warm, comfortable point of contact during prolonged exams
No batteries or electronics required, so it stays ready between visits
Well suited to antenatal checkups, labor wards, and midwifery training programs
Because it has no moving parts or circuitry, this horn holds up well over years of routine use, provided it is wiped down and stored properly between patients. For practices that value traditional obstetric assessment methods alongside modern equipment, this Pinard horn remains a dependable choice. Add this diagnostic instrument to your facility supply.
