Abstract: Method and apparatus for teaching students palpation and auscultation of a fetus in a pregnant female, comprising a fetal doll, a loud speaker attached to the fetal doll, a recording of fetal heart tones, means for reproducing the recording and transmitting the tones to the loud speaker, a cushion having an opening in which the fetal doll is inserted, filling material packed into the cushion surrounding the doll, an outer cover in which the cushion is adjustably, movably inserted, and a plurality of straps for attaching the cover containing the cushion onto a female model to simulate pregnancy; whereupon the position of the fetal doll may be adjusted relative to the abdomen of the model and the students guided in palpation techniques for locating and identifying the position of the fetal doll, and the simulated fetal heart tones may be varied to simulate real-life fetal heart conditions and the students guided in auscultation techniques for medically assessing the simulated fetal heart tones.
