HOW DILAPAN S WORKS

-

DILAPAN-S IS A NON-PHARMACOLOGIC, MECHANICAL CERVICAL DILATOR

designed for gentle, safe, and predictable cervical ripening in the induction of labor1-4

It is composed of Aquacryl®, a firm, synthetic, patented hydrogel that increases in volume by absorbing fluids.2  

 

  • Each rod swells to several times its original diameter through absorption of moisture from the cervix.

  • Approximately 80% of rod swelling occurs within the first 4-6 hours after insertion. 

  • In a single procedure typically 3 to 5 rods are inserted, with the rods inserted one at a time.4,6
