Comparison of auditory versus electronic assessment of antenatal fetal welfare
The relationship of auscultation of fetal heart rate accelerations to fetal movements, and the comparison of fetal heart rate accelerations with those observed on a fetal monitor, are reported. This auditory nonstress test (NST) was usually confirmed by the electronic fetal monitor. These results indicate that 94.6% of reactive auditory NSTs may allow elimination or reduction of the need for electronic fetal monitoring.
