A Fetal Monitor is an essential obstetric device used to continuously monitor fetal heart rate and uterine contractions during pregnancy and labor. It helps healthcare professionals assess fetal well-being, detect distress early, and ensure safe monitoring of both mother and baby throughout the prenatal and intrapartum period.
Fetal monitors use ultrasound transducers and tocodynamometers to accurately capture fetal heart rate (FHR) and uterine activity. Advanced signal processing ensures clear and reliable readings, even during maternal movement, providing consistent and precise monitoring.
