Chapter 11 FTS-3 Fetal Telemetry System
11.1 Brief Introduction
FTS-3 Fetal Telemetry System (hereinafter called FTS-3) provides non-invasive monitoring for
the fetal heart rate (FHR) and testing TOCO for the pregnant women from the 28th week of
gestation. 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 F6, F9 series fetal/maternal monitor and connects to the monitor by signal
cable. The wireless transducers monitor the FHR, TOCO parameters within certain distance, and
then the base station sends them to the monitor through signal cable, and the monitor can display,
alarm, print or review the parameters.
FTS-3 consists of the wireless US transducers, the wireless TOCO transducer and the base
station.
The wireless signal can be 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 smaller in
water than that in the air.
