2. Introducing the FTS-3 Fetal Telemetry
System
2.1
Brief Introduction
FTS-3 Fetal Telemetry System (hereinafter called FTS-3) provides monitoring for FHR,
DECG MHR, AFM and TOCO for pregnant women. When connected to a compatible
fetal monitor, FTS-3 provides wireless patient monitoring in the antepartum period and
during labor and delivery.
It is intended to be used only by trained and qualified personnel in antepartum
examination rooms, labor and delivery rooms. It is not intended for use in intensive
care units, operating rooms or for home use.
FTS-3 is used with fetal/maternal monitor and connects to the monitor by an interface
cable supplied with the product. The wireless transducers monitor the FHR, and TOCO
parameters up to 110 Metres line of sight, and then the base station transfers the data
to the monitor via the interface cable. The monitor can display, alarm, print or review
the parameters.
FTS-3 consists of the wireless US transducers (US-T transducers), the wireless TOCO
transducer (TOCO-T transducer or TOCO-E transducer) and the base station.
The wireless signal is transmitted in the Industrial Scientific Medical Band (ISM)
according to the local regulations. The transmission range depends on where the
system is used. It is recommended to use in hospital for better transmission. The
transmission range is shorter in water than that in the air.
