Monitoring Ambulant FHR Using DECG

1. Ensure that the ultrasound transducer stays in position after the

patient has moved and that you have not lost the FHR signal as the

fetal position may change.

2. If the FHR signal is lost or unclear (yellow or red on the signal

quality indicator panel on the monitor), reposition the transducer

while the patient is standing and if necessary tighten the belt to

stop the transducer slipping.

Obtain the best possible signal before allowing the patient to ambulate. A

trace is produced when the signal quality indicator is yellow, but for the

best possible trace it should be green continuously. A clear sound coming

from the monitor indicates that you have the best position for the

transducer.

1. Check that the DECG transducer stays in position after the patient

has moved and that you have not lost the FHR signal.

2. Obtain the best possible signal before allowing the patient to

ambulate. A trace is produced when the signal quality indicator is

yellow, but for the best possible trace it should be green

continuously.

The M1365A patient module is not compatible with the Series 50 T.
