Fetal Monitoring
Overview
This chapter describes the fetal monitor functionality of the Spacelabs Medical
Maternal Obstetrical Monitor
(MOM
). For instructions on optional maternal
parameters such as ECG, SpO
2
, temperature, and NIBP refer to the appropriate
chapter of this manual.
Fetal Display Detail
The fetal module automatically allocates a single display zone when it establishes
communication with the Maternal Obstetrical Monitor. This zone consists of
numeric values and messages. When an internal fetal ECG electrode is applied to
the patient, a second zone displays the fetal ECG waveform from channel 1. This
zone does not display when using ultrasound-monitoring technique.
For singleton births, this display will appear as follows:
