## Indications for use
The MindChild Medical Meridian M100 Fetal Heart Rate Monitor is an intrapartum fetal monitor that externally measures and displays fetal heart rate (FHR). The MindChild Meridian M100 acquires and displays the FHR tracing from abdominal surface electrodes that detect the fetal ECG signal (fECG). FHR tracings are displayed onto a primary fetal monitor. In addition, the M100 synchronizes the TOCO transducer signal which is also displayed to the primary fetal monitor. The MindChild Meridian M 100 is indicated for use on women who are at >36 completed weeks, in labor, with singleton pregnancies, using surface electrodes on the maternal abdomen. The MindChild Meridian is intended for use by healthcare professionals in a clinical setting.
