No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of the study is to assess the change of fetal heart rate in response to the amount of pressure exerted on the maternal abdomen. The amount of pressure will be quantified using an electronic pressure sensor (FSR 400- Round Force Sensor, Interlink).

Conditions

  • Pregnancy

Interventions

PROCEDURE

maternal abdominal pressure

The fetal cardiac response of either acceleration, deceleration or no change at all to the fetal heart- will be recorded and later on analyzed in reference to the amount of pressure applied from the 20th minute of CTG and for 5 minutes, using the FSR 400 sensor.
