Page 2 of the exhibit discloses a "1st Generation Probe"
or "Foxprobe" for "EKG + Oximeter + Temperature." The "Fox"
in "Foxprobe" is derived from fetal oximetry. This exhibit63
states that this probe is to have "Direct compatibility with
Current fetal monitor" and "Direct compatibility with
Conventional oximeters." The following notation also appears
on this page:
"2 independent pulse rates - sort out artifacts
Provides % O saturation
2
Monitors fetal temperature"
The "1st Generation probe," which is depicted in sketches
at page 2 of the exhibit, consists of two separate parts
connected together by a "coil + teflon sheath" containing
"2 fibers + 4 wires." The first part of the probe contains "2
leds [light emitting diodes] + detector" and is connectable to
a "Cable (wire)," presumably of conventional design. The
second part of the probe is the "tip," which has two
hypodermic "corkscrews," one for "Fiber + EKG" and the other
for "Fiber + T.C." Although T. Johnson was unable to recall
