₦3,500.00

fetoscope, specifically a Pinard horn, is a specialized stethoscope used to listen to a fetal heartbeat during pregnancy, amplifying sounds and allowing for non-invasive fetal heart rate monitoring.

Features:

Hollow Horn Shape: Fetoscopes, like the Pinard horn, are characterized by their hollow, horn-shaped design, which amplifies sound waves from the fetal heartbeat.
Material: They are typically made of wood, plastic, or metal.
Simple and Portable: Fetoscopes are simple to use, requiring no batteries or charging, making them portable and convenient for use in various settings.
No Cellular Disruption: Unlike Doppler ultrasound, fetoscopes do not emit sound waves or heat, potentially reducing concerns about potential cellular disruption.
Cost-Effective: Fetoscopes are generally more affordable than Doppler ultrasound devices.

Uses:

Fetal Heart Rate Monitoring:

The primary use of a fetoscope is to listen to and assess the fetal heart rate during prenatal visits and labor.
Non-Invasive Assessment:

It provides a non-invasive way to assess fetal well-being, offering a low-tech alternative to Doppler ultrasound.
Early Detection:

A fetoscope can detect a fetal heartbeat as early as the 20th week of pregnancy.
Accurate Determination of Fetal Position:

The fetoscope requires precise placement to hear the heartbeat, which can help in determining the fetal position.
