THE PROBLEM
Fetal heart rate monitoring is important for detecting changes in the normal heart rate that could signal danger and needed treatment, especially during labor. Annually, 2.6 million stillbirths occur, 98% of which occur in low-resource settings and half of which occur during labor and delivery. Major causes of stillbirth include childbirth complications, maternal infections, and maternal disorders like hypertension (preeclampsia). In the absence of tools to detect fetal heart rate during pregnancy, labor, and childbirth it can be difficult for practitioners or midwives to detect dangerous changes in the fetus and take emergency actions to save the child’s life.
THE SOLUTION
The pocket fetal doppler is used by a general practitioner or midwife to detect the fetal heart. The doppler features a 2MHz ultrasound probe that provides clear fetal heart sounds. Sound can be heard through a built-in loudspeaker or headphone connection. Lightweight, small, and battery-powered, it can be used in low-resource areas and by practitioners who travel to remote areas to provide obstetric care.
