摘要:
A system and/or device for transabdominal fetal oximetry and/or fetal pulse oximetry and/or uterine tone determination may include one or more articulating, adjustable, and/or selectable components such as a light source and/or a photodetector. In some embodiments, the positioning of a light source and/or detector may be adjustable. The articulation and/or adjustment of position of the light source and/or photodetector may be in any plane (X, Y, and/or Z) and, in some instances, may be responsive to a fetal position within a maternal abdomen. Light detected by the detectors may be used to determine a fetal hemoglobin oxygen saturation level and/or a muscular state (e.g., contracted or relaxed) of the pregnant mammal's uterus.
