Method and apparatus for monitoring fetal status data

摘要

A system is provided for remotely monitoring fetal status parameters. Status parameters are sampled from patient sensors (20) and are processed and stored in a medical facility data management system (24). A general purpose data presentation application (38), such as a browser, is employed on a client side (14) to access the data via a network (16), such as the Internet. Support software is called upon to format user-viewable pages (48) and to insert data transmitted from the medical facility for remote viewing. The technique is particularly well suited to monitoring of a variety of parameters at various sampling rates for remote medical evaluation, such as in obstetrics applications. <IMAGE>
