A new application tool for the ROCHE pH electrode.
Using this tool the application of the pH electrode is nearly as easy as the attachment of a common ECG-scalp-electrode [3]. Visual control and lithotomy position is not necessary any more. The different tools are adapted to each other so that incision place and the tip of the pH electrode are automatically centered perpendicularly. The first results by using this tool promise to be successful. Time of application is short, the maintenance of the pH electrode is good and the application for the patient no longer disagreeable.
