A beltless tocodynamometer - a preliminary report
Article Abstract:
A new tocodynamometer, an electronic device for monitoring and recording contractions in labor without a belt, has been developed. The uterine activity of a group of patients in active, early, premature, or false labor was monitored using a tocodynamometer with a belt and using the new beltless device. The beltless tocodynamometer proved to be a convenient, simple-to-use external monitoring device which was more efficient at assessing labor contractions than the belted system.
