METHOD FOR MONITORING A CHILDBIRTH PROCESS

摘要

A liquid carrying element (60), such as a test strip, is preferably tagged and used together with a measurement and presentation device (64, 70). The measurement and presentation device is used in labor wards to evaluate change in lactate levels in amniotic fluid (62). In order to make sure that the correct test strip is inserted in the measurement device an identification mechanism (66) may be used. The test strip may contain an identification tag (68). The measurement device may be set to only accept correctly tagged test strips.
