Fetal monitors

A fetal monitor or doppler, cardiomonitor, cardiotocograph is special medical equipment for ultrasound diagnostics and monitoring the condition of the fetus in the woman’s body during pregnancy. The monitor has several functions:

• measuring parameters;
• displaying the obtained results;
• printing results.

The device differs from ultrasound machines in that it has a low level of radiation; it is 8 times lower. The main purpose of the monitor is to detect the fetal heartbeat through measuring blood flow, and a high radiation power is not required for this.

The operating principle of a fetal monitor is based on the Doppler effect. During the measurement, a sensor that emits ultrasound waves is placed on the woman’s abdomen. It is moved across the abdomen to reach its location in the projection of the fetal heart.

The sensor simultaneously performs the function of a receiver of the signal reflecting from the internal organs of the woman and the fetus. The received signal is transmitted to the processing unit, where the information about the fetal heartbeat is separated and the heart rate is counted with the display of the results on the screen.

The fetal monitor has compact dimensions, an intuitive interface, and a simple operating principle, so it can be used at home for regular monitoring of fetal development. A pregnant woman can conduct diagnostics independently, starting from the 12th week of pregnancy, which saves her from unnecessary worries and has a positive effect on the condition of the fetus and the woman herself.
