Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Maternal Fetal Monitoring devices assist the health care professional in acquiring, monitoring, and storing fetal and maternal physiologic data which support clinical decision making for pregnant women and assesses the overall fetal health status during pregnancy and delivery. This study aims to support a new maternal fetal monitoring device with clinical data by collecting simultaneous, continuous, external, distinguishable FHRs from twin pregnancies using ultrasound Doppler transducers from the new maternal fetal monitoring investigational device and a marketed ultrasound imaging device.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study aims to support a new maternal fetal monitoring device with clinical data by collecting distinguishable FHRs from twin pregnancies using ultrasound Doppler transducers from the investigational device and a marketed ultrasound imaging device. This study will collect twin fetal heart rate data from the new monitor on twin gestations.

Funding for this study will be provided by GE HealthCare. This study does not include patient advisors.

Allocation Method

NA

Intervention Model

SINGLE_GROUP

Pregnant women of ≥30 0/7 weeks gestation will undergo one 40-minute monitoring session utilizing the investigational device with two Doppler transducers (FHR 1 and FHR 2) following M- mode fetal ultrasound imaging confirming fetal presentation (i.e. vertex, breech, shoulder), fetal lie (i.e. longitudinal, transverse), visualization of fetal heart rates of each fetus and documentation. During the monitoring sessions, maternal pulse rate (MPR) will be monitored using a SpO2 sensor and the investigator shall be present to adjust the transducers as needed to maintain a continuous FHR tracing.

Twin Monitoring - All Subjects

Pregnant women of ≥30 0/7 weeks gestation will undergo one 40-minute monitoring session utilizing the investigational device with two Doppler transducers (FHR 1 and FHR 2) following M- mode fetal ultrasound imaging confirming fetal presentation, fetal lie, visualization of fetal heart rates of each fetus and documentation. During the monitoring sessions, maternal pulse rate (MPR) will be monitored using a SpO2 sensor and the investigator shall be present to adjust the transducers as needed to maintain a continuous FHR tracing.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Investigational Fetal Monitor

Intervention Type DEVICE

Investigational Fetal Monitoring Device Device is a multi-parameter maternal fetal monitor that is intended to monitor, store, display, transmit, and generate alarms for non-invasive and invasive clinical parameters of pregnant women and fetuses (singleton and twin), during the antepartum, intrapartum, and postpartum period.

Ultrasound Imaging Device

Intervention Type DEVICE

The Ultrasound imaging device is a general-purpose diagnostic ultrasound system for use in measurement, display and analysis of the human body and fluid.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Able and willing to provide written informed consent.
2. Twin pregnancy.
3. Aged 18+.
4. Greater than or equal to 30 0/7 weeks gestation.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Non-twin pregnancy.
2. Involvement in another clinical trial currently or previously in this pregnancy that, in the investigator's opinion, would affect the conduct of this study.
3. Medical or obstetric problem that in investigator's opinion would make the patient incapable of taking part in the study.
4. Inability to understand the consent information due to medical illness, diminished intellectual capacity, or insurmountable language barrier.
