I used a cut and reversed 20cc syringe for years in 2 Boston area hospitals
and it was never a problem. They do work, sometimes, but you need to be
quick; removing syringe and placing baby on breast.

This sounds very interesting, do you have access info.?
Also, use of an inverted syringe for this purpose has been discussed at
length on Lactnet in the past. Search the archives and you can see the exact
same discussion!
