  • Title: Evaluation of fetal wellbeing by antepartum fetal heart monitoring.
    Author: Flynn AM, Kelly J.
    Journal: Br Med J; 1977 Apr 09; 1(6066):936-9. PubMed ID: 851791.
    Abstract:
    The value of antenatal fetal heart rate monitoring was assessed in 301 patients. Tracings from each patient were classified as "reactive" or "non-reactive." Perinatal mortality, fetal distress in labour, caesarean section for fetal distress, and the incidence of low Apgar scores were all significantly increased in the non-reactive group.
