Doingso enables doctors to monitor stress indicators, as fetal heart rate maychange in response to conditions in the uterus. An abnormal heart ratepattern may indicate that the baby is not getting enough oxygen orother problems. Among the non-invasive tools used for this purposeare a fetoscope, a hand-held Doppler device, external electronic fetalmonitoring, and internal fetal monitoring. The choice of monitoringinstrument is largely dependent on a woman’s particular circumstancesand choice of labor management. Women with high-risk pregnancies, orwho are induced or choose epidural anesthesia, are more likely to havecontinuous fetal monitoring.A woman’s pregnancy is one of the most important times in her life.
