Doppler Foetal BF500++ Pocket

Early Detection of Foetal Heart Rate from 12 Weeks
The BF500++ Pocket Foetal Doppler uses Doppler ultrasound technology to detect and monitor the foetal heartbeat from as early as 12 weeks gestation. The device transmits a 2.5 MHz ultrasonic signal at an intensity of ?5 mW/cm? and measures foetal heart rate across a range of 60 to 210 bpm, displaying results in real time on the built-in LCD. The combination of a well-established probe frequency and a clearly readable display allows midwives, obstetricians, and clinic nurses to carry out rapid antenatal assessments with confidence.

Portable Design for Clinical and Home Use
Weighing just 0.25 kg net, the BF500++ is designed for easy one-handed operation in any clinical setting or home environment. The compact form factor ? 200 mm x 165 mm x 65 mm ? fits comfortably in a clinical bag or examination room drawer. The unit is powered by a 9.6 V rechargeable battery pack or standard 9 V cells, providing approximately 8 hours of continuous use per charge. An included 220 V / 50 Hz AC adapter supports mains operation or recharging, making the device versatile across fixed clinic rooms and mobile maternity settings. An integrated volume control allows the clinician to adjust the audible heartbeat signal during assessment.

Reliable Quality for Antenatal Monitoring
The BF500++ carries CE marking and is manufactured to ISO 9001:2000 quality standards, confirming its suitability for clinical use in South African healthcare facilities. Its straightforward operation requires minimal training, making it appropriate for use by community health workers and midwifery staff as well as obstetric clinicians. The device is well suited to primary healthcare clinics, antenatal wards, birthing units, and community-based maternal health programmes where portable, dependable foetal monitoring is required.
