Fetal Spiral Electrode
Details
Device typeFoetal scalp electrode, spiral: A sterile electrical conductor designed to transmit electric signals from the foetal scalp to an intrapartum monitor. The device is a spiralled (either single- or double-helix) metallic electrode with a sharp tip that is directly inserted into the foetal scalp with a screwing action; and an adaptor cable that may include a transducer. The electrode penetrates into the scalp up to 2.5 mm (0.1 inch); it is usually inserted with a dedicated applicator that may be included. The electrode is typically used to monitor a foetal physiologic signal (e.g., heart rate) during labour (intrapartum) after rupture of the amniotic sac. This is a single-use device.
