CL Pods
CL Fetal & Maternal Pod
The CL F&M Pod provides measurement values for FHR, Toco, and HR. It communicates them to
the fetal monitor using short range radio (SRR). It is controlled via SRR from the Avalon CL base
station and the connected fetal monitor.
The CL F&M Pod is assigned by docking it at the Avalon CL base station. Before monitoring, the
CL F&M Pod is mounted on a single-use electrode patch, and held in place by integrated magnets.
When the CL F&M Pod is active, the wired transducers connected to the fetal monitor are disabled.
WARNING
The CL Fetal & Maternal Pod has been validated with a gestational age of >36 weeks with patients in
labor. It is only intended for singleton pregnancies. If the measurement signals are not good or in any
way suspicious, use other means of monitoring (CL transducers or wired transducers).
