Description
FM-2 is a fetal monitor for non invasively
measuring, and showing maternal uterine
contractions and the fetal heart rate as a graphic
display, and optionally on a strip chart recorder,
printer or OB TraceVue system. The data is
intended to aid in assessing the well being of the
fetus during the final trimester of pregnancy non-
stress test (NST).
This portable fetal monitor offers a solution for
antepartum screening in the private doctor’s office,
outpatient clinics, and for remote applications such
as traveling nurses visiting patient’s homes, or for
clinics in rural areas seeking remote consultation.
It is intended for use only by trained medical
personnel located in hospitals, clinics, doctor’s
offices and in the patient’s home or during transport
under the direction of a licensed practitioner.
