  Gregory GatesSep 23, 2025
  To resolve issues with internal contractions monitoring on EDAN Medical Equipment, consider these steps: * If the intrauterine catheter is jammed, wash it with a disinfectant. * In a “dry” environment or if the tip of the intrauterine catheter is placed extraovularly, wash with disinfector or change the position of transducer. * If the zero adjustment is wrong, zero the system. * If there is a connector failure, move or contact the catheter. If there is no trend fluctuation, change the intrauterine cable.

Why is the recorder not working on my EDAN F9 Express Medical Equipment?

  If the EDAN Medical Equipment recorder isn't working, first, make sure the recorder has been started by pressing the PRINT key. Another cause could be that it has run out of paper, so load more paper. Also, ensure that the paper drawer is correctly locked by sliding it in until both latches are secured.

  If you're experiencing noise with your EDAN Medical Equipment, try turning down the volume. If the volume isn't the issue, it might be interference from a mobile phone or another source. Keep any potential interfering sources away from the monitor.

Why is the trace quality bad on my EDAN F9 Express?
- M
  Mary WilliamsonAug 27, 2025
  If you're getting a bad trace quality or fluctuant TOCO baseline on your EDAN Medical Equipment, the belt might be too tight or too loose; try adjusting it. Also, if the belt has no elasticity, renew it. Maternal or frequent fetal movements can also cause this issue, so request the patient to calm down and stay still or delay the monitoring.

Why is the trace inconstant on my EDAN F9 Express?
- C
  curtisthomasAug 27, 2025
  If the EDAN Medical Equipment displays an inconstant trace or display, it could be due to several factors. If the patient is overweighted, monitor FHR with DECG. Ensure the ultrasound transducer is properly positioned for a better signal. Check for a loose belt and tighten it. Wipe off any superfluous aquasonic coupling gel, or use the recommended quantity if there is inadequate gel. Frequent fetal or maternal movements can also interfere; in these cases, delay monitoring or ask the patient to stay still.

  Jared ThomasSep 18, 2025
  If your EDAN Medical Equipment experiences troubles with external contractions monitoring, first adjust the belt if it's too tight or too loose. If the belt has no elasticity, renew it. Maternal or frequent fetal movements can cause issues, so ask the patient to stay still or delay monitoring. If the body pressure from the uterus to the TOCO transducer is far higher than average, ensure favorable contact between the patient's skin and the TOCO transducer, and change its position if necessary.

Why is there big ECG signal interference or a thick baseline on my EDAN Medical Equipment?
- M
  Mary BauerSep 15, 2025
  Big ECG signal interference or a thick baseline on EDAN Medical Equipment might be due to abnormal electrode placement or invalid electrodes; check the placement and validity. Also, ensure the cable connector is well connected. Verify that the power socket has a standard ground wire and that the special ground wire connecting with the monitor is properly earthed.

How to correct the time and date on EDAN F9 Express Medical Equipment?

  Matthew WebbSep 5, 2025
  If you find that the time and date are incorrect on your EDAN Medical Equipment, it may be because the time was incorrectly set. Reset the time and date, and note the difference between Daylight Saving Time and Winter Standard Time. If that doesn't solve the problem, the battery may be faulty, and service personnel should be called.
