GE Corometrics 259 Features
The GE Corometrics 259 is a fully antepartum/intrapartum fetal monitoring system. The Corometrics 259 includes innovative features that can help deliver a high-quality birthing experience with advanced patient care. The Corometrics 250 series can monitor fetal heart rate and activity, along with monitoring parameters for the mother. These monitoring features include heart rate, temperature, oxygen saturation, ECG, and blood pressure. The Fetal Monitor can give you a comprehensive, detailed reading for labor and delivery.
The Monitor is equipped with an LCD screen that can simultaneously display fetal and maternal parameters plus the maternal waveforms. The Monitoring system additionally offers a recorder that prints continuous trends and alphanumeric data on a stripe chart. The GE Corometrics system offers a variety of ports on the back of the system to transfer data throughout the facility. Along with connectors for telemetry and data entry. The Corometrics 259 series also includes the Corometrics 259cx . The difference between the 259 and the 259cx is that the CX version has a color LCD screen.
