CROYDE TEN MINUTE AUDIO MOOD TUBE
Product Code: CTP15-MEDx3-BA

The Croyde Audio Mood Tube is a beam of light that helps create a peaceful environment with subtle colour changes, whilst built-in Bluetooth speakers allow birthing people to listen to a calming audio of their choice.

 

BUILT-IN BLUETOOTH
SPEAKERS

The Audio Mood Tube features built-in Bluetooth speakers for easy connection to a mobile device, allowing the birthing person to play a calming audio of their choice for a more soothing experience.

The tube's large size and distinctive design also helps deter theft whilst remaining easy to move between rooms, making it a secure and practical solution for clinical settings.

CREATE AN AUDIO-CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT

The ability to play audio is ideal for eliminating external sounds from the surrounding clinical environment, providing a further sense of privacy.

Disrupting background noise can heighten nerves and cause spikes in adrenaline. Instead, the calming environment that the Audio Mood Tube creates can promote the natural release of oxytocin for a smoother progression of labour.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The Audio Mood Tube is designed for the birthing person and their partner to get involved. That's why we've put together a short guide you can direct them to, so they can learn about how and why to use the tube to support their labour experience.

They can simply scan the QR code located on the top of the Audio Mood Tube!

TEN MINUTE COLOUR CYCLE TO TRACK LABOUR PROGRESS

WHAT?

The beautiful colour palette cycles through 11 colours on a 10-minute cycle, which can help midwives when monitoring a person's labour progress.

HOW?

Simply take note of the Mood Tube’s current colour and begin counting contractions from that moment. When the same colour appears again, 10 minutes will have passed.

WHY?

Not only does this visual guide support midwives monitoring labour, but with each colour shift, the birthing individual is also empowered to identify their contraction timings, increasing awareness of their labour progression.

NOT YOUR STANDARD SENSORY LIGHT

Unlike standard off-the-shelf sensory light solutions that are designed to be stimulating, the Croyde Mood Tube is purposely designed for a softer, calmer lighting experience - ideal for use in maternity and neonatal environments.

CALMING & PEACEFUL

Using its LED light beam technology, the Audio Mood Tube automatically cycles through the colour spectrum to deliver a calmer, more relaxed room ambience. It helps to foster feelings of relaxation and wellness, whilst also being a welcome sensory distraction and focal point within the room.

The Croyde Audio Mood Tube can be used in any room, but is especially popular in delivery rooms, pool rooms and bereavement suites.

EASY TO MAINTAIN AND SET UP

Unlike bubble tubes, the Mood Tube requires no maintenance. The PVC material means the tube can be wiped clean using hospital wipes, making it perfect for use in all clinical environments.

Setup is also easy, with no installation required - simply take the tube out of the box, plug it in and it's ready to go!
