Cautions
Chapter 1 - Safety
Warning
During ambulant FHR monitoring, the chance of losing the signal or
detecting the maternal heart rate is higher than during stationary
monitoring. We therefore recommend that you check the mother's
pulse periodically during monitoring and compare this to the FHR
signal. Beware of mistaking a "doubled" maternal heart rate for
FHR.
Performing ultrasound imaging or Doppler flow measurements in
conjunction with ultrasound fetal monitoring may cause false
readings of FHR (recording of the trace may deteriorate).
Also, the frequency of the patient's walk may be detected. This is
more likely when the patient is overweight or has a breech
presentation.
Warning
Make sure that all four feet are located firmly in place
Caution
SHOCK HAZARD: Do not remove the receiver covers. Service may
