Intrapartum devices are the most commonly used methods for monitoring the fetus during labor. An intrapartum device is used to monitor uterus activity and heart rate of the fetus. This device helps to reduce the complication of fetus such as brain damage, cerebral palsy, and newborn seizures which results in death during childbirth. Intrapartum devices include electrodes and monitors that are used to monitor the fetus. Moreover, they are used to detect high blood pressure, bleeding, and other side effects.

COVID-19 is an infectious disease that first emerged in late December in Hubei province of the Wuhan city in China. The virus that causes, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is highly infectious and is transmitted from person to person. Since the outbreak in December 2019, the disease has spread to almost 213 countries around the globe with the World Health Organization declaring it a pandemic on March 11, 2020.
There is an increase in the demand for medical supplies needed for the infected population. Respiratory support devices such as atomizers, life support machines, oxygen generators, and monitors are among the primarily used medical devices in primary clinical treatment. Moreover, COVID-19 has also resulted in the significant increase in the in demand for medical supplies such as personal protective equipment including masks, gloves, and protective eyeglasses. The need for medical supplies has increased among both from the healthcare professionals and the civil population for precautionary measures, owing to rise in number of COVID-19 cases worldwide. Manufacturers of these products have an opportunity to profit from this increased demand for medical supplies to ensure appropriate and consistent supply of personal protective equipment in the market. Therefore, COVID 19 is expected to have a significant impact on the intrapartum device market.
