What is it indicated for?

The FeatherLite Toco tocodynamometer is intended for use in conjunction with standard fetal monitors for the evaluation of external uterine activity during antepartum and intrapartum periods. It should only be used in a clinical setting. Caution: The FeatherLite Toco is not intended for home monitoring of pre-term labor. Placement over the fundal area of the uterus to the left or right of the midline is suitable for most patients. It is held in place on the surface of the abdomen using the attached elastic belt.

The product is supplied non-sterile and is intended for single use or limited reuse following appropriate cleaning per hospital protocol.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
