Abstract: A female fetal electrode product includes a socket connector electrically connected to fetal and maternal electrodes. The female connector shrouds and electrically connects with a male plug connector. The electrodes may be electrically connected with a remote monitoring device via the male and female connectors. The male connector may extend within an opening in the leg plate or project from the leg plate and may be removable from the leg plate. The female socket connector has an outer dimension less than the inner dimension of a driving tube so that the driving tube can be pulled over the female socket connector after the fetal electrode has been attached to a fetus.
