The childbirth process is monitored by applying one or more probes(24) to the mother and monitoring the locations of the probes by transmitting non-ionizing field such as magnetic fields between the probes and reference elements (10,20) in proximity to the mother. The magnitude and direction of movement of the probes indicates the magnitude and direction of uterine contractions. Fetal position and cervical dilation may be monitored by providing additional probes (44,54) attached to the fetus and to the cervix.
On surveille un accouchement en posant une sonde (24), sinon plusieurs, sur la mère et en contrôlant les emplacements de ces sondes par transmission d'un champ non ionisant, un champ magnétique par exemple, entre lesdites sondes et des éléments de référence (10, 20) installés à proximité de la mère. L'ampleur du déplacement des sondes et la direction qu'elles prennent sont représentatifs de l'ampleur des contractions utérines et de leur direction. Il est possible de surveiller la position du foetus et la dilatation du col en ajoutant d'autres sondes (44, 54) fixées sur le foetus et le col utérin.
