An Evaluation of Breast Pumps Currently Available on the American Market

Carmen Acosta Johnson, Ph.D.

Program in Health Care Administration, University of Houston at Clear Lake, Houston, Texas

Eight breast pumps commonly seen in clinical practice were measured and ranked for de sirability in eight categories: pressure range, pressure control, size and shape of nipple cup, volume accommodation, visual feedback, ease of cleaning, ease of handling, and cost. Three scored relatively high (Egnell, Kaneson, and Loyd-B), three scored low (Gomco, Davol, and Bintner), and two appeared to be frequently ineffective (Evenflo and Ora'lac).
