The predictive value of cardiotocography
Continuous fetal heart rate (FHR) recordings from 200 parturients in first stage of labour were evaluated according to conventional systems and compared with the Apgar scores at one minute. The results were disappointing, but they indicate that an improvement could be achieved by taking into consideration the periodical total uterine impulse (TUI) in the first stage of labour.
