Test Performed
As there are two versions in the series, the testing capabilities of the Sonicaid BD4000xs may be different — although not much so. The two versions are both Twin-Ready, but only the Twin Fetal Monitor has two ultrasound transducers (which is what allows for the simultaneous monitoring of both fetuses.)
With the use of either the single or dual ultrasound transducers, fetal monitoring is made possible. The device was also built with an intuitive interface for testing, a reporting software for the electronic handling of results, and a printer for documentation and reimbursement purposes to ensure maximum efficiency and ease-of-use.
