Product overviewDisposable hospital pump sets for Symphony® are designed and validated as part of the Symphony® hospital breast-pump system to support clinical and bedside milk expression. Sets feature an oval 105° breast shield proven in clinical evaluations to improve milk removal and maternal comfort. Available as Ready-to-Use One-Day sets and EO-sterilized Sterile Single-Use sets, in five shield sizes including the new 18 mm.
Features & Benefits- 105° oval breast shield: clinically shown to increase milk yield (reported +11% at 15 minutes versus a standard 90° shield) and to improve breast drainage (reported +4%), supporting lactation management.
- Detachable shield design for easier handling, compatibility with hands-free pumping garments and simplified assembly/disassembly.
- Ready-to-Use One-Day format requires no cleaning before first use for single-user hospital applications, saving time while maintaining hygienic handling.
- Available in five sizes (18, 21, 24, 27, 30 mm) to optimise fit and milk flow for individual patients.
- Two product formats to meet clinical needs: Ready-to-Use One-Day (single-user, up to eight uses within 24 hours) and Sterile Single-Use (EO-sterilised, sterile for full shelf life).
- Supports double-pumping protocols associated with increased milk output and clinical efficiency.
