Fetal Heart Rate Variability and Fetal Growth Restriction ((FGR))

November 20, 2020 updated by: University of Aarhus

Fetal Heart Rate Variability Compared to Doppler Flows in the Growth Restricted Fetus: a Cohort Study

There is growing evidence in the field of fetal heart rate variability revealing the fetal neurological state. Furthermore, fetal heart rate variability has shown potential as fetal surveillance in fetal growth restriction.

This study aim to investigate the association between fetal heart rate variability and doppler flow changes in growth restricted fetuses.
