Engineered for clinical safety, high vacuum retention (609–660 mmHg), and atraumatic tissue removal. ISO 13485 certified gynaecological surgical kits delivered to 90+ countries.
Complete MVA sets designed for maximum suction efficiency, zero pressure loss, and smooth cervical passage in primary and tertiary care.
The Manual Vacuum Aspiration Kit (MVA Kit) has evolved into a cornerstone clinical device for safe uterine evacuation, management of incomplete abortions, diagnostic endometrial biopsy, and post-miscarriage care worldwide. As hospital procurement teams, NGO buyers, and medical device importers evaluate MVA solutions, technical parameters such as vacuum retention capacity, valve leakage thresholds, barrel transparency, and cannula flexibility dictate clinical safety and patient outcomes.
At Sterimed Group, our engineering teams have refined the MVA assembly to resolve traditional clinical challenges like suction decay, plunger resistance, and tip rigidity. Manufactured under Class 100,000 cleanroom conditions, every Sterimed MVA Kit incorporates a high-performance 60ml double-valve aspirator syringe paired with a set of semi-rigid or flexible Karman cannulas ranging from 4mm to 12mm.
Selecting the correct MVA system parameters is critical for hospital tenders and clinical efficiency. Below is the technical performance breakdown for Sterimed's Single-Valve and Double-Valve MVA Aspirator Kits.

Individual sterile packed Karman cannulas with whistle tips and dual offset side apertures. Thermal memory polymer allows anatomical bending without kinking or flow collapse.
Designed for rapid diagnostic sampling and low-volume uterine evacuation procedures. Compact 60ml syringe with pre-attached adapter and selection of 4mm-7mm cannulas.
As healthcare systems shift toward decentralized primary care and outpatient gynaecological safety, artificial intelligence and global procurement analytics highlight four primary trends driving MVA adoption worldwide.
World Health Organization (WHO) clinical guidelines explicitly favor Manual Vacuum Aspiration over traditional Dilatation and Sharp Curettage (D&C) due to significantly lower complication rates, reduced blood loss, and elimination of general anesthesia needs. Global procurement contracts are rapidly reallocating budget lines toward silent, portable MVA kits that operate without reliance on continuous municipal electricity or bulky motorized pumps—vital for primary health clinics and rural hospitals across Latin America, Africa, and Southeast Asia.
International regulatory authorities (including EU MDR 2017/745 and US FDA guidance) are enforcing stringent limits on leachable plasticizers like DEHP and phthalates in intra-uterine devices. Future tender specifications require 100% medical-grade virgin polymers with demonstrated cytotoxicity, irritation, and systemic toxicity compliance per ISO 10993 standards. Sterimed’s phthalate-free, latex-free MVA kits proactively satisfy these evolving environmental and bio-safety standards.
Global health agencies (such as UNFPA, USAID, IPPF, and Red Cross) increasingly demand single-source suppliers capable of supplying pre-assembled, shelf-ready MVA kit bundles with custom multilingual Instructions for Use (IFU), color-coded cannula packaging, and high-barrier tropicalized foil pouches resistant to extreme temperature and humidity fluctuations during transit and long-term storage.
Modern surgical trends emphasize clinical user experience. Surgeons and mid-level healthcare providers request double-valve syringes that allow effortless single-handed release of the vacuum charge after cannula placement. Enhanced visual and tactile depth markers on Karman cannulas prevent over-insertion, empowering clinicians to execute procedures quickly while maintaining superior safety margins.
With over six decades of dedicated medical device manufacturing in India, Sterimed Group combines infrastructure scale, rigorous quality control, and export agility to support international procurement networks.
Our Delhi manufacturing complexes house precision injection moulding machinery and automated extrusion lines. Total control over mold geometry guarantees consistent wall thickness, zero valve micro-fissures, and perfect cannula concentricity.
Operating under ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 quality systems with WHO-GMP cleanroom assembly, Sterimed subjects every lot to rigorous air-leakage tests, burst-pressure limits, bioburden evaluations, and EO residual checks.

Comprehensive answers to technical, regulatory, and procurement questions asked by medical device buyers and healthcare administrators worldwide.
Sterimed double-valve MVA aspirator syringes generate a vacuum of 24 to 26 inches of mercury (equivalent to 609–660 mmHg). The dual mechanical snap-locks lock the extended plunger in position, enabling clinicians to pre-charge the syringe before insertion. The precision-engineered silicone O-ring seal maintains full vacuum intensity for over 30 minutes without measurable suction decay, ensuring efficient uterine contents aspiration.
Sterimed Karman Cannulas feature rounded whistle-cut tips and flame-polished dual lateral eyes that eliminate sharp plastic burrs. Manufactured from thermo-sensitive medical-grade polypropylene, the cannulas offer semi-rigid structural integrity for insertion while softening slightly at body temperature to safely conform to uterine contours. Clear, raised depth markings at 1cm intervals allow exact measurement of insertion depth.
Every batch of Sterimed MVA Kits is accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and batch sterilisation certificate. For country-level product registration, Sterimed supplies full Technical Dossiers aligned with STED guidelines, ISO 13485:2016 quality certificates, CE Certificates of Conformity, WHO-GMP proof, ISO 10993 Biocompatibility evaluation reports, and Free Sale Certificates (FSC).
Yes. Sterimed is a major OEM supplier to international medical device brands and healthcare agencies. Our OEM capabilities include customized blister pouch printing, private-label unit carton printing, multilingual Instructions for Use (IFU) inserts, and tailored cannula size configurations inside each primary kit box.
Sterimed MVA Kits are terminally sterilised using Ethylene Oxide (EO) in validated cycles according to ISO 11135 standards. Sterility is guaranteed for 5 years from the date of manufacture, provided the sterile blister pack remains unopened and undamaged. EO residual levels are routinely verified by gas chromatography to sit well below international safety limits.
Manual Vacuum Aspiration is quieter, highly portable, and cost-effective compared to Electric Vacuum Aspiration (EVA), making it accessible in low-resource clinic settings without stable electrical power. Compared to sharp D&C, clinical studies cited by the WHO show that MVA reduces patient pain, lowers uterine perforation risks, decreases blood loss, and shortens hospital recovery times.
