Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Beat-to-beat fetal heart rate will be compared to the Doppler result.

Time Frame: 2 years

Beat-to-beat fetal heart rate will be compared to the Doppler result using Pearson Correlation. Timing of PR, QT, and QS, if visible, will be compared with published normative values from the neonatology literature as these values are not otherwise obtainable in an ongoing pregnancy.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Evaluate the presence of other fECG intervals.(2 years)
