Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
neutral  Erik Boers: In jouw referentie gaat het om een peertje waarin je moet knijpen om een signaal te geven aan de radioloog (b.v. als je tijdens het onderzoek onwel wordt).//Jouw squeeze bulb komt aardig in de buurt, denk ik.

  -> het is precies hetzelfde peertje, maar inflation is wel wat onhandig hier inderdaad....
