Fetal monitors
What is a fetal monitor, its purpose
A fetal monitor (cardiotocograph) is a special medical equipment used to monitor the vital signs of the fetus and mother. It performs several options at once: measuring parameters, displaying them, and printing the results.
Scope of the fetal monitor for mother and fetus
Fetal monitoring is a modern diagnostic method for accurate analysis and determination of the functional parameters of the child and woman. It is most often used for diagnostics in medical institutions specialising in pregnancy planning and management, maternity hospitals. It is also often present in ambulances and antenatal clinics.
What is determined with a fetal cardiotocograph monitor
The fetal cardiac monitor is mainly used in gynaecology. The functionality of the device allows you to take the following parameters:
- - Fetal movements;
- - Electrocardiogram;
- - Non-invasive maternal blood pressure;
- - Maternal body temperature;
- - Uterine contractions;
- - Blood saturation;
- - Respiratory rate.
The ultrasound sensor of the fetal monitor is placed on the abdomen of a pregnant woman. The signal, reflected from the internal organs of the mother and fetus, makes it possible to collect all the necessary parameters for the cardiotocograph to make the necessary calculations and give the result of the study.
Criteria for choosing a fetal monitor
- Portability and ease of use. Since this device is designed for prenatal monitoring in the hospital (maternity hospital) and before hospitalisation, for home use, ease of movement of the monitor is an important factor in the choice. Allows doctors and patients to observe the measured indicators in real time.
