A foetal/maternal prenatal monitor is an electronic system used to track the health of a baby and the mother during pregnancy and labor. These devices continuously record the foetal heart rate and maternal uterine contractions to ensure both patients remain stable throughout the perinatal period.
These systems typically utilize external sensors, such as ultrasound transducers and pressure-sensitive belts, to collect data from the abdomen. The resulting information is processed and displayed through digital screens or printed reports, and some units may include wireless telemetry to allow for greater patient mobility.
