The importance of maternal recording of fetal movements is emphasised by the authors and the value of ultrasound and cardiotocography for follow up examination is discussed. The newer modalities of flow velocity waveforms and cordocentesis should be reserved for specialist units. Other important tests include fetal heart rate monitoring and scalp blood monitoring, and their uses and limitations are reviewed.
