This study is being done to evaluate if the Vscan Access R2 Ultrasound System can measure Fetal Heart Rate (FHR) in humans when compared against a reference device (GE Corometrics 170 Series Fetal Monitor), and to gather feedback from device operators on the usability of the device.

This study is being done to evaluate whether the Vscan Access R2 Ultrasound System Assisted FHR phantom testing conclusions can be extrapolated onto human fetal heart rate measurements, where CTG (GE Corometrics 170 Series Fetal Monitor) is to provide a reference value. It should be noted that the Vscan Access R2 Ultrasound System with Assisted FHR has a different intended use than CTG (momentary FHR value versus continuous monitoring of FHR patterns and trends) and this aspect is out of scope of this research.
Usability data will be gathered for further user experience optimization.
Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
A diagnostic ultrasound imaging system manufactured by the study Sponsor.
A reference device to record a continuous fetal heart rate.
Time frame: 1 day - Up to 45 minutes of total scan time
Absolute difference and variance in fetal heart rate (in BPM) measured using VScan Access R2 and Corometrics
Time frame: 1 day - Up to 45 minutes of total scan time (5 minutes for this specific measurement)
Visualization of fetal heart as acquired from the GE Voluson P8 to verify that the fetal heart was correctly identified during the image acquisition using Vscan Access R2. This is gathered through a Yes/No confirmation by device operator as to whether it was the fetal heart being scanned (once for each subject).
Time frame: Collected from the time subject signs informed consent form to the time of completion of subject's scan session, estimated up to 4 hours
Summary of type and number of AEs, SAEs reported/recorded during course
Time frame: 10 minute survey completed by scan operators upon completion their participation (only one day per user)
Series of nine questions regarding usability, ease of use, and workflow
Time frame: Three weeks (estimated study duration)
Device Issues, Complaints, and Malfunctions will be reported in a table (type and number)
