FECG (Internal Method)

Methodology

This method uses an electrode attached directly to the fetal presenting part. The

electrode is connected to the cable/legplate secured to the mother. The fetal heart

rate is computed based upon the interval between successive R-wave peaks of the

fetal QRS complex.

The fetal heart rate is displayed in bpm and is continuously plotted on the strip chart

recorder paper if the recorder is on. (Refer to “US/US2 Setup Screen” on page 5-3.)

The heartbeat indicator flashes for each detected heartbeat.

Artifact Elimination

An FECG artifact elimination option is available behind the password-protected

Service Lock screen on all 250cx Series Monitors.
