Description
Digital display of the maternal heart rate (MHR).
Needs to be enabled in the settings, Section 5.3.2. Please note – MHR is
not shown when alert or help messages are being shown
When the MHR is shown on the Novii screen. This alert symbol is displayed
when the MHR and FHR are within 10 bpm of each other for longer than 60
seconds. If enabled, an audible alert will also be heard until the user silences it
by touching the audio alert sound icon which will be flashing. The audio alert
will be silenced for 60 minutes. The visual alert will disappear when the FHR
and MHR diverge with a greater than 10 bpm difference for a cumulative time
of 60 seconds.
Novii POD fECG signal quality indicator, is indicated by the color and number
of squares in the indicator bar.
• x3 green squares indicates a good mECG/fECG, which should provide good
FHR extraction.
• x2 orange squares indicates that the FHR extraction may be compromised
e.g. maternal movement, poor signal to noise, and the user should be
cautious in accepting the FHR trace and seek confirmation.
• x1 red square indicates there is no FHR extraction because the abdominal
maternal/fetal ECG is poor, the noise levels are high or there is a fault
condition preventing FHR extraction.
Novii Pod battery status, consisting of 8 charge levels.
A green battery icon showing all 8 segments indicates the Novii Pod has a
battery life of up to 11 hours.
A orange battery icon with only one of eight segments showing indicates that
the POD battery life has dropped to around 60 minutes and the user should be
prepared to replace the POD. When this occurs an alert/help message will be
displayed, see Section 6.7.2.
A orange battery icon with no segments indicates an empty POD battery
