Solutions for AFL®-monitoring

​Samples of amniotic fluid are collected during labor and analysed at Point-of-Care for the concentration of lactate (AFL test). The system can also, if wanted, be used to enter cervix dilatation. By combining the information of progress with the AFL level, a thorough understanding of the delivery status is obtained.

AFL®-method is built on patented¹ technology and is the only system on the market for Point-of-Care use that is tailored for the measurement of lactate in amniotic fluid.
