Avalon FM30
The Avalon FM30 fetal/maternal monitor offers a solution for both external and internal fetal
monitoring applications, and optional non-invasive maternal vital signs.
The Avalon FM30 shares all the features and capabilities of the Avalon FM20. In addition, you can
monitor one FHR internally via direct fetal electrocardiogram (DECG), uterine activity internally using
an intra-uterine pressure (IUP) catheter together with a Toco
+
transducer or patient module, and
optionally, maternal oxygen saturation (SpO
2
).
The Avalon FM30 carries the label, indicating that it is capable of intrapartum monitoring.

Battery
Option
#E25 Only
The battery option for the FM20/30 provides support for the in-transport monitoring of all
measurements when disconnected from a power supply. Existing data storage is automatically
uploaded to OB TraceVue after reconnecting to the system. Trace printing during transport is also
possible.
Avalon FM40 and FM50
This section outlines the capabilities of your monitor.
Avalon FM40
The Avalon FM40 fetal/maternal monitor provides a solution for external fetal monitoring
applications, and non-invasive maternal vital signs.
You can monitor fetal heart rates (FHRs) externally using ultrasound, uterine activity using an external
Toco transducer, and the maternal heart rate (MHR) via maternal ECG electrodes, and non-invasive
blood pressure and maternal oxygen saturation (SpO
2
).
Measurements are displayed on a 6.5-inch color display as numerics. The display is a touchscreen, and
you operate the monitor using this touchscreen interface. The integrated recorder documents fetal and
maternal measurements as well as user defined annotations.
You can connect the monitor to an OB TraceVue obstetrical documentation and surveillance system
via the RS232 connection, or over a LAN connection (with OB TraceVue Revision E.00.00 and later).
