How to Evaluate Blood Loss in a Waterbabies Birth Pool

Blood Loss Demonstration in the Waterbabies Birth Pool

Disclaimer: This video is intended solely for educational and demonstration purposes and is not to be considered medical advice. The scenarios depicted have been specifically created to showcase the appearance and behavior of simulated blood loss in a Waterbirth scenario using Waterbabies™ Birth Pools. The setup, lighting, and conditions have been tailored to our particular pool model and may not reflect outcomes in other birth environments or products.

To ensure clarity and visibility for training purposes, demonstrations were conducted under both well-lit and lower light conditions that mimic more realistic birthing settings.

We used TrueClot® Blood Simulant, a highly realistic training product commonly used by first responders for hemorrhage control simulations. No real blood or biological material was used in the making of this video.

Please note that in a real birth scenario, the water may also contain other bodily fluids such as mucus, which may alter the appearance and distribution of blood in the water.

Always consult with a qualified healthcare provider for medical advice or guidance regarding birth and postpartum care.
