Does a Relationship Exist Between Fetal Hiccups and Computerised Cardiotocography Parameters?

NCT04366076 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 55

Last updated 2020-05-04

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

BACKGROUND: The physiological function of fetal hiccups and its correlation with fetal well-being is unexplored. No previous study examines the correlation between the maternal perception of the fetal hiccups and the antepartum cardiotocography.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the correlation between the fetal hiccups and antepartum computerised cardiotocography parameters, in nonlaboring term singleton pregnancies.

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring through computerized cardiotocography (cCTG) analysis antepartum

The investigator conducted antepartum surveillance through computerized cardiotocography (cCTG) analysis antepartum. This is a non-invasive method to study fetal well being. For each patient, a cCTG was attended using a computerized cardiotocography machine. External cCTG was practised for no less than 20 min (max 60 min), two transducers were fixed on the maternal abdomen: one above the fetal heart level and the other at the uterine fundus
