c. Position POD clip so that the top edge of electrode #2 is 5”/10-12cm below the

fundus.

The electrode on the flexible cable, electrode #5, Fig. 2, should be placed on top of

pannus approximating to the point 2.4”/6cm horizontally from the symphysis pubis looking

vertically down. This is difficult to estimate and if the FHR signal is poor, reposition this

electrode lower down on abdomen to maximize FHR signal and consider

placing under the pannus just below turn ensuring the electrode is

not folded.

6.5.3 Instruction 3: Select a Charged POD

1. Remove any Novii POD from one of the Novii Interface charging bays as long as the POD battery

status icon is GREEN. Once it is removed the blue lights on the front of the Novii POD will flash

alternately, to indicate that the POD is now ‘active’ and paired to the Novii Interface.

2. The Interface display will change to a countdown as shown below. The Novii POD must now

be clipped to the Patch, within 2 minutes.

3. The battery charging icon on the Interface will be replaced by a ‘busy’ icon ( 1, 2, 3 white dots),

indicating that the POD is preparing to commence monitoring. The busy icon will remain until

the MHR is detected when it will stop.

4. The POD is attached to the Patch with the Monica symbol facing up. Magnets in both the

Patch clip and POD ensure correct placement and, no force is required.
