FM20 FM30 FM50 Marking an Event

You can record significant events on the trace paper (for example, when pain medication is administered or when the mother changes position). The mother can use the remote event marker to mark events herself. You connect the remote event marker to any free fetal sensor socket.

To mark an event on the trace paper you can:•Either select the Set Marker SmartKey .•Or press the button on the remote event marker.

The remote event marker is connected to the monitor via any fetal transducer socket.A small arrow is printed on the heart rate scale on the trace paper. This reflects exactly when the marker button was first pressed; keeping the button pressed has no influence on the annotation.

There is an Event Marker interface on the outside of FM20, which can be used to access Event Marker Cable

Fetal Remote Event Marker usage scenarios:

The ultrasound transducer detects the general movement of the fetus. Eye movements cannot be detected, and foot and hand movements may not be detected. The positioning or repositioning of the transducer is recorded as fetal movement. Maternal movement, fetal hyperventilation, or fetal hiccups can also be recorded as fetal movement. You can mark these artifacts on tracing paper using the remote event marker or event marker keys.
