ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER:

            This statement on Schedule 13D relates to shares of common stock,
$0.001 par value per share of Natus Medical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Issuer") held by private investment funds managed by Perry Corp. (the
"Shares"). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 1501
Industrial Road, San Carlos, CA 94070.

ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND:

            This statement on Schedule 13D is filed on behalf of Perry Corp., a
New York corporation, and Richard C. Perry, an American citizen. Perry Corp. is
a registered investment adviser that provides asset management services to
private investment funds. Richard C. Perry is the President, sole director, and
sole stockholder of Perry Corp. The address of Perry Corp. and Richard C. Perry
is 599 Lexington Avenue, New York, NY 10022. A joint filing agreement of Perry
Corp. and Richard C. Perry is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

            The names, citizenship, business addresses and principal occupations
of each of the directors and executive officers of Perry Corp. (other than
Richard C. Perry) are set forth in Schedule B, which is incorporated herein by
reference.

            During the last five years, neither Perry Corp., Richard C. Perry,
nor any of the persons listed in Schedule B has been convicted in a criminal
proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or has been a
party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent
jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment,
decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or
mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any
violation with respect to such laws.

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION:

            The transactions reported hereunder with respect to Shares purchased
or sold by the reporting persons were consummated by two or more private
investment funds for which Perry Corp. acts as a general partner and/or
investment adviser. The total sales price for the Shares sold was $1,293,997.

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION:

            The Shares were sold in connection with investment and proprietary
trading purposes in the ordinary course of business by two or more private
investment funds managed by Perry Corp. and were not acquired with the purpose
or effect of changing or influencing control of the Issuer.

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER:

            (a)-(b) Perry Corp. is the indirect beneficial owner of 3,342,021
Shares, which constitutes approximately 20.02% of the Issuer's outstanding
shares, based upon 16,692,000 shares outstanding as of July 1, 2004. Perry Corp.
has sole power to vote and sole power to dispose of the 3,342,021 Shares. By
virtue of his position as President and sole stockholder of Perry Corp., Richard
C. Perry may be considered to indirectly beneficially own such Shares. Richard
C. Perry disclaims any beneficial ownership interest of the Shares held by any
funds for which Perry Corp. acts as the general partner and/or investment
adviser, except for that portion of such shares that relates to his economic
interest in such shares.

            (c) See Exhibit B attached hereto. All of the transactions in the
Shares set forth on Exhibit B were consummated by private investment funds for
which Perry Corp. acts as a general partner and/or investment adviser within 60
days of the event which triggered the filing of this Schedule 13D. All
transactions in the Shares were open market transactions.

            (d) The limited partners of (or investors in) each of two or more
private investment funds for which Perry Corp. acts as general partner and/or
investment adviser have the right to participate in the receipt of dividends
from, or proceeds from the sale of, the Shares held for the accounts of their
respective funds in accordance with their respective limited partnership
interests (or investment percentages) in their respective funds.

            (e) Not Applicable.



ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO
        SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER:

            Except for the arrangements described in Item 5(d) above, to the
best knowledge of Perry Corp., there are no contracts, arrangements,
understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) between the persons
enumerated in Item 2 and any other person with respect to any securities of the
Issuer, including but not limited to, transfer or voting of any of the Shares,
finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls,
guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding
of proxies.
