Fetal Monitor Belly Band (Pack of 10)

The AltroCare Fetal Monitor Belly Band is a lightweight, seamless, Latex-Free garment that is hemmed at both sides. It has 3-dimensional stretch and will stretch to twice its size, adjusting itself to different belly sizes for different size mothers. The band can be used instead of belts or over them for additional securement of the sensors. It can also be used with newer wireless sensors. Our Belly Band is the product of choice for antepartum mothers who require constant monitoring and for bariatric patients. It comes in four sizes, accommodating high-BMI patients with abdominal circumference up to 72 inches! This smaller pack with 10 bands is ideal for small birthing centers and doulas.

Clinical Benefits:

Failure to get a reliable baseline reading in high-BMI patients is becoming more common, with obese patients comprising nearly one-third of US births. These patients with a BMI over 30 are more likely to experience complications, require internal monitoring, have prolonged first stage labor, and undergo cesarean delivery. The AltroCare Fetal Heart Rate Monitoring Belly Band was designed to solve this problem and provide the ultimate comfort for the laboring mother, while effectively holding the sensors in place, ensuring accurate readings for the hospital staff.
