title: [A new procedure for continuous measurement of fetal oxygen saturation sub partu].
abstract: The principal aim of foetal monitoring during labor is early detection of hypoxia. Current methods are unable to accomplish this task. Pulse oximetry permits continuous measurement of oxygen saturation and is the best method to detect early hypoxia. In this report, an optical scalp electrode is presented, which permits continuous monitoring of foetal oxygen saturation during labor.
