AmnioSense is a test in a panty liner that detects amniotic fluid leakage and infection in pregnancy.

"How does it work ?"

Directions for Use
1. Wash and dry your hands.
2. Unwrap the Test Panty Liner (TPL). The TPL contains a removable pale yellow indicator strip.
3. Attach the TPL to your underwear (Figure 1). The pale yellow indicator strip should sit directly against your vagina. Wear the TPL as you would a normal panty liner, for up to 12 hours.

Figure 1

4. When the TPL is wet or when you replace the TPL, prepare the enclosed plastic box.
5. Remove the indicator strip from the TPL by gently pulling the loose tail of the indicator strip

6. Lay the indicator strip on the white cloth in the open plastic box (Figure 3). Close the box. Dispose of the TPL.

7. Wait 10 minutes and check the colour of the indicator strip.

Reading your Results
After 10 minutes of drying, look at the colour of the indicator strip (Figure 4).
* If the indicator strip stained blue or green, the fluid leak is probably amniotic fluid. Consult your physician or go to the hospital without delay

Figure 4

Important: The indicator strip may also turn blue or green if vaginal infection is detected. If the indicator strip turns blue or green, always consult your doctor.
* If the indicator strip stained blue or green but the colour faded back to yellow during the 10 minute waiting period, the indicator strip has been in contact with urine.
* If the indicator strip did not change colour, the fluid leak is not amniotic fluid and could be urine.

Showing the Indicator Strip to your midwife or doctor. The colour change in cases of amniotic fluid leak is stable for more than 2 hours. If you intend to show the indicating result to your doctor, take the closed plastic box containing the indicator strip to your doctor as soon as possible.
