Frequently asked questions
What is the primary use of the Edan F6 monitor?
The Edan F6 Dual Fetal Monitor is a sophisticated, hospital-grade device primarily designed for comprehensive fetal monitoring in multi-bed units, private obstetrician offices, and antepartum clinics. It’s suitable for monitoring pregnant women from the 28th week of gestation onwards, providing advanced integrated monitoring during:
- Antepartum examination
- Labor
- Delivery
This monitor supports both non-invasive and invasive monitoring methods for the fetus, ensuring versatile application in various clinical settings.
What is the display resolution?
The Edan F6 Dual Fetal Monitor is equipped with a 10.2-inch color TFT-LCD screen that offers a high resolution of 800 x 480 pixels.
This high-resolution display is designed to ensure maximum clarity, allowing clinicians to view both complex waveforms and digital data simultaneously. The screen also features a folding-up design, making it easy to adjust the viewing angle for use in various clinical settings.
What is the continuous battery life?
The Edan F6 Dual Fetal Monitor is equipped with a 14.8 V rechargeable lithium-ion battery.
This battery is designed to provide a continuous working time of 2 to 4 hours on a full charge, ensuring the monitor remains operational during transport or procedures where continuous AC power access is unavailable.
What essential parameters does the standard monitor track?
The standard configuration of the Edan F6 Dual Fetal Monitor provides comprehensive, non-invasive data crucial for monitoring twin pregnancies.
It tracks the following essential parameters:
- Twins Fetal Heart Rate (FHR): Monitored simultaneously using dual, multi-crystal, waterproof ultrasound probes (50 - 240 bpm range).
- TOCO (Uterine Activity): Measures contractions (0 - 100 Relative %).
- Auto Fetal Movement (AFM): Automatically detected using pulsed doppler ultrasound.
- Event Mark: Allows for manual marking of fetal movements or other significant events.
What is the real-time printing speed?
The Edan F6 features a high-resolution, long-life built-in thermal printer. The printing speed depends on the mode:
- Real-Time Printing: The speed can be configured to 1, 2, or 3 cm/min.
- Stored Traces (Quick Printing): When printing stored waveforms, the speed is up to 25 mm/sec.
Is the monitor shipped with all necessary probes and accessories?
Yes, the Edan F6 Dual Fetal Monitor ships as a complete, standard setup designed for immediate use right out of the box, including all components necessary for non-invasive dual fetal monitoring.
This comprehensive package ensures you have the required components for monitoring twins (FHR and TOCO):
- Monitoring Transducers & Supplies:
- (2) FHR Probes (for dual fetal heart rate monitoring)
- TOCO Probe (for uterine activity/contractions)
- (3) Patient Belts
- Ultrasound Gel (250 g)
- Event Marker
- Recording & Power:
- (3) units of Recording Paper for the built-in thermal printer
- Power Cord (USA Standard) and Ground Cable
- Connectivity & Documentation:
- Insight Connection Cable and Ethernet Cable (for optional Central Monitoring System connections)
- User Manual, Quick Reference, and Guidance to Fetal Heart Monitoring
Does the F6 monitor support internal fetal monitoring?
Yes, the Edan F6 Dual Fetal Monitor supports optional internal (invasive) monitoring for one fetus. This advanced capability requires selecting the ‘With DECG/IUP’ configuration at the time of purchase.
When equipped, the monitor can track the following internal parameters:
- DECG (Direct Fetal Electrocardiogram): Provides highly accurate internal Fetal Heart Rate (FHR) monitoring.
- Range: 30 - 240 bpm
- Accuracy: ± 1 bpm
- IUP (Intrauterine Pressure): Used for internal monitoring of uterine activity.
- Pressure Range: 0 - 100 mmHg
This option allows the unit to monitor two FHRs simultaneously (one internal, one external) along with uterine activity (via IUP or external TOCO).
How is data on the USB drive secured?
Data saved on the Edan F6 Dual Fetal Monitor’s USB drive is encrypted. To view this data, specific software is required, such as the Edan Central Station Software (CMS-Lite), which is also suggested for managing patient data.
Does this monitor support accurate twins tracking?
Yes, the Edan F6 Dual Fetal Monitor is specifically engineered for the advanced, simultaneous monitoring of twins (Dual FHR) during antepartum and intrapartum examinations. It is a hospital-grade system designed to ensure high accuracy and signal integrity.
Key features supporting twin tracking include:
- Dedicated Dual Monitoring: The system tracks two Fetal Heart Rates (FHRs) simultaneously, along with Uterine Activity (TOCO) and Auto Fetal Movement (AFM).
- High Precision Technology: It uses Ultrasound pulse doppler with correlation technology.
- Accuracy and Range: The monitoring is highly accurate, with an FHR accuracy of ± 2 bpm across a broad monitoring range of 50 to 240 bpm.
- Included Components: The unit comes standard with two dedicated FHR probes to facilitate dual monitoring.
Does it have efficient printing capabilities?
Yes, the Edan F6 includes a high-resolution, long-life built-in thermal printer designed for efficient documentation and fast data output.
Key features include:
- Real-Time Printing: Supports printing at selectable speeds of 1, 2, or 3 cm/min.
- Rapid Trace Printing: Stored waveform traces can be printed quickly, up to 25 mm/sec.
- Data Recall: The monitor allows for quick printing directly from 24 hours of stored waveform playback.
