102 pregnant womens have been controlled by means of the various three methods of the antenatal CTG (phonocardiography, ultrasonography and indirect fetal ECG) between the 22th to 41th week. The registered time for each method was ten minutes. Between the 27th to 33th week of the pregnancy the ultrasonography gives the best results. The phonocardiography gives after the 32th week, especially after the 37th week, increasing technical unobjectionable tachograms. There was a good tachografic performans between the 22th to 27th week and after the 35th week by means of indirect fetal ECG. Between the 27th and 34th week this method refuses. The interpretation of indirect fetal ECG or phonocardiotocography, if they are possible, shows clear advantages in antenatal diagnostic of fetal condition.
