    Abstract:
    We present our experience with fetal pulse oximetry during labor monitoring in a case of fetal atrio-ventricular block. Fetal pulse oximetry is a recent technique of fetal monitoring. It is based on the photometric properties of hemoglobin and reduced hemoglobin. The continuous and noninvasive method measured fetal saturation in oxygen. It can detect fetal hypoxia, cause of acute suffering. Saturation was continuously greater than 40%. Spontaneous delivery raised no problem, either for the fetus or the mother.
