Fetal transport

From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference.

Jump to: navigation, search

A fetal transport is a medical procedure where an infant is transported directly out of the uterus. It is generally employed when complications during birth endanger mother and/or child.

During the birth of Naomi Wildman, a Human-Ktarian hybrid, in 2372, her exocranial ridges became lodged in Samantha Wildman's uterine wall, threatening to cause internal bleeding. Rather than risk repositioning the child, The Doctor performed a fetal transport into an incubator, which caused a slight hemocythemic imbalance. (VOY: "Deadlock")
