0.1 Before using the monitor

Fetal monitoring technology available today is not always able to differentiate a fetal heart rate (FH) signal source from a maternal heart rate (MHR) source in all situations. Therefore, you should confirm fetal life by independent means before starting to use the fetal monitor, for example, by palpation of fetal movement or auscultation of fetal heart sounds using a fetoscope, stethoscope, or Pinard stethoscope. If you cannot hear the fetal heart sounds, and you cannot confirm fetal movement by palpation, confirm fetal life using obstetric ultrasonography. Continue to confirm that the fetus is the signal source for the FHR during monitoring.
Be aware that a MHR trace can exhibit features that are very similar to those of a FHR trace, even including acceleration and decelerations. Do not rely solely on trace pattern features to identify a fetal source.
It is possible to pick up maternal signal sources, such as maternal heart, aorta, or other large vessels as the FHR. Misidentification may occur when the MHR is higher than normal (especially when it is over 100 bpm).

Intended use

BT-350 fetal monitor is intended for non-invasive monitoring of fetal heart rates and uterine activity. BT-350 is intended for generating alarms from fetal heart rate, for displaying, storing and recording patient data and related waveforms.

1 System basics

1.1 Intended use

BT-350, the non-invasive fetal monitoring system provides graphical and numerical information on fetal heart rate (FHR) and maternal uterine activity (UA) to help assess fetal well-being before and during labor. FHR often exhibits decelerations and accelerations in response to uterine contractions or fetal movements; certain patterns are indicative of hypoxia. Examination of these patterns, the baseline levels, and variability characteristics can indicate the need to alter the course of labor with drugs or perform an operative delivery.
It is intended to be used to a pregnant woman only by trained and qualified personnel such as medical professionals especially physicians and nurse of obstetrics in the medical institution having antepartum examination rooms, labor, and delivery rooms.
1) Intended patient population
- Pregnant women
2) Intended user profile
- Nursing staff or physicians who is qualified
- Basic experiences or knowledge on the medical field, especially on obstetrics
- Trained or requested to read IFU before use
3) Environment of use
1. Hospital (birthing center, delivery rooms)
2. Requirements: Stable power source

1.2 Operating principle

The device detects the fetal heart rate and heartbeat sound using the Doppler effect of ultrasound and measure the relative uterine contraction using the strain gauge and output the result to the printer. The two probes are equipped to detect the fetal heart rate and heartbeat sound of twins.

2 Operation of BT-350

2.1 System startup: Self-test

The monitor performs a self-test each time it is turned on. This process allows the monitor to check various systems for proper operation. The monitor displays the startup screen during the power-on­self-test. When the test is successfully completed the BT-350 displays the monitoring screen.
If a malfunction is detected an error message displays and an error tone is sounded. The error tone will continue until the power is turned off. If this occurs, remove the monitor from use until appropriate action is taken.

6 Monitoring fetal heart rate

6.1 Electromagnetic interference

Strong electromagnetic fields can interfere with the ultrasound transducer and cause a false heart rate reading that does not originate from the fetus. This interference is rare and usually found in the vicinity of large machinery. In order to avoid the possibility of these interferences, the following procedure should be followed whenever the monitor is to be used in a new location, or if it is known that electrical machinery is being operated in the vicinity.
After connecting the ultrasound transducer(s), turn on the monitor and observe the heart rate indications on the screen for 30 seconds. Intermittent display of random heart rate is acceptable. However, if there is a constant display of a physiological heart rate lasting more than 5 seconds, this is an indication that there is a source of electromagnetic interference in the vicinity. The following steps should be taken to determine if it is possible to use the monitor in this environment.
Move all line cords and line-powered equipment at least 200 cm away from the monitor. Check for
extension cords running behind or under the bed and equipment in adjacent rooms. If the artifact heart rate indication ceased, the monitor may be used normally.
Remove all the line cord from the monitor’s power supply. If the artifact heart rate indication
ceased, the monitor may be used normally.
If these measures do not result in cessation of the heart rate artifact, the monitor can’t be safely used in this environment.
Fetal heart rate is measured by placing the ultrasound transducer on the maternal abdomen and by processing the received Doppler echo signal to produce a heart rate and an audio representation of the echo signal.
please cover the patient’s abdomen section which has a possibility of contacting by the cable

6.2 Monitoring sequence overview

Step 1: Preparing the monitor
Turn the monitor on and verify that the normal monitoring screen appears on the display. Stop
using the monitor if an error occurs.
Check whether the monitor is powered from the internal battery or AC power. If the monitor is
powered from the internal battery, check the power status from on the display to determine whether the battery has sufficient charge to complete the monitoring session. Use the AC power if the battery is too low.
40
Page 42
BT-350 Operation Manual
Check the ultrasound transducer to verify proper attachment to the monitor. For monitoring twins,
make sure the second ultrasound transducer is properly connected.
Adjust channel one speaker volume to the middle level. Adjust channel two speaker volume to
zero if monitoring twins.
Apply ultrasound gel to the face of the transducer.
Step 2: Acquiring the fetal heart signal
Determine the location of the fetal heart using palpation or a fetoscope. Place the transducer on
the maternal abdomen and listen to the fetal heart signal. Reposition the transducer for the loudest fetal heart sound.
Secure the ultrasound transducer with the elastic belt. Make sure that the transducer is still
positioned for the loudest fetal heart signal.
Verify the monitor is displaying fetal heart rate values and that the heart shape icon on the screen
is blinking at the measured heart rate.
Step 3: Acquiring twin’s heart rate
Follow step 2 above to acquire the heart rate for the first fetus. Decrease the channel one speaker volume and increase the channel two speaker volume to hear
the second heart sound.
Determine the location of the second fetal signal using palpation or fetoscope. Apply gel to the second ultrasound transducer and place it on the maternal abdomen where the
second fetal signal was located. Reposition the transducer for the loudest fetal heart sound.
Secure the ultrasound transducer with the elastic belt. Make sure that the transducer is still
positioned for the loudest fetal heart signal.
Verify the monitor is displaying fetal heart rate values and that the heart shape icon on the screen
is blinking at the measured heart rate.
Step 4: Monitor adjustment
Readjust the volume settings for the desired loudness.

6.3 Detail procedure

Explain the procedure to the patient. Place a probe belt under the patient Turn the monitor on.
41
Page 43
BT-350 Operation Manual
CAUTION
The probe belt may cause allergy or skin side effects to the patient if it is used so long time.
Doppler Probe
Connect the ultrasound probe to the “DOP” connector. Apply a small amount of ultrasound coupling gel to the face of the transducer. Determine the position of the fetus using Leopold’s maneuvers. The strongest fetal heart tones are
heard through the fetal back.
Place the transducer face down on the maternal abdomen over the area determined as the fetal
back.
Secure the transducer comfortable in the place by inserting the transducer button through the
button holes on each end of the belt.
Adjust the volume as required.
Press the print button [ ] to activate the printer.

7 Uterine contraction (UC)

Uterine contraction is measured externally by placing a pressure sensor (UC sensor) on the maternal abdomen and measure the relative pressure change.
please cover the patient’s abdomen section which has a possibility of contacting by the cable

7.1 Monitoring sequence overview

Step 1: Preparing the monitor
Turn the monitor on and verify that the normal monitoring screen appears on the display. Stop
using the monitor if an error occurs.
Check whether the monitor is powered from the internal battery or AC power. If the monitor is
powered from the internal battery, check the power status from on the display to determine whether the battery has sufficient charge to complete the monitoring session. Use the AC power if the battery is too low.
Check the UC probe to verify proper attachment to the monitor. Press the UC reference button to adjust the values to the baseline.
Step 2: Acquiring the uterine contraction data
Place the face (button side) of the UC probe on the fundus on the uterus when contractions are
not occurring. No gel is required.
Secure the UC probe with the elastic belt. The uterine contraction reading at this point should be
greater than 30 and less than 90 units. If the readings fall outside of this range, the belt may be too tight or too loose. If the belt is overtightened, the contraction peaks may have a flat-top at less than on the UC scale. If the belt is under tightened, the sensor can move and cause unstable readings. Readjust the belt pressure as needed.

7.2 Detail procedure

Explain the procedure to the patient. Place a probe belt under the patient Turn the monitor on. Connect the UC probe to the “UC” connector.
43
Page 45
