Fetel Doppler Program
The Fetel Doppler Monitor is a hand-held unit which uses ultrasound waves to pick up an audible heartbeat of a baby while in utero. Now you can rent a Doppler Monitor to use at home and listen to your baby's heartbeat. Fetal Doppler Monitors are available for rent between 20-42 weeks of pregnancy. Doppler ultrasound has been well studied and approved by the FDA. They have been found to have no harmful effects to the fetus.
Listening to your baby's heartbeat at home can be an enjoyable experience for the pregnant woman. It is a convenient way to bond with your baby and monitor your baby's heartbeat and now share the experience with your family and friends.
Since Fetal Doppler Monitoring at home cannot identify problems that may exist, patients using Doppler should always notify their physician if fetal well being is in question.
