[Breast Pump FAQs]Which pump will maximize my supply?

By Rachel Johnson, CNM, ARNP, CLC
Pumps have motors that have strengths in suction mmHg. Generally, the higher amount of suction, the more output. “Hospital Grade” pumps typically have an output of 300+ mmHg and have a “closed system” so more than one person can use it. If you are the only person using your pump, typically a strength of 250+ mmHg is enough.
