Summary
Traditionally, antepartum fetal monitoring was
performed mostly through the mothers experience
and judgment of fetal movements. Heart sounds
were monitored through a fetal stethoscope as
well. As technology evolved within this market,
phonocardiographs (PCG), with the use of sensors,
were developed to monitor fetal heart rate (FHR)
electronically and more accurately. Antepartum
monitoring includes non-stress tests as well as
the contraction stress tests and may occur in
hospitals or private practice. The main purpose
of intrapartum fetal monitoring is to monitor FHR
in order to assess brain injury. During labor,
severe complications such as brain damage can
occur. A cardiotocograph measures FHR,
beat-to-beat, as well as uterine contractions in
order to properly monitor for brain injury. This
technique uses ultrasound probes or an external
contraction sensor.

Neonatal monitoring involves high-acuity
observation of neonates in an intensive care
setting. Neonate patients most commonly result
from premature births and require access to
specialized equipment and resources such as
temperature support, feeding, respiratory
assistance and isolation to prevent infection.
Neonatal monitors are standard high-acuity
monitors that employ specialized algorithms,
different alarm limits and measurements as well
as event and alerting packages specific to
neonates. There are both invasive and
non-invasive methods for fetal and neonatal
monitoring and both methods have advantages and
disadvantages. Invasive methods for fetal
monitoring have traditionally been used and are
able to directly reveal genetic abnormalities in
the fetus. However, these methods are not without
complications. They can cause damage to fetal and
maternal tissues, trauma, pain and, in some
cases, miscarriage.

Moreover, neonatal monitoring is shifting towards
more non-invasive methods. Due to neonates small
size, invasive techniques are usually harmful and
damaging to them. Recent advances in monitoring
technologies allow for a greater number of
physiological parameters, such as blood gas,
cerebral blood flow, electroencephalography
(EEG), end-tidal CO2 and biochemical
characteristics, to be monitored
non-invasively. Fetal and neonatal monitoring
are similar but they differ by the time during
the pregnancy and birthing cycle when each device
is used. Fetal monitoring occurs before and
during the birthing process, while neonatal
monitoring occurs after birth. Moreover, the
parameters that are most important to be
monitored vary depending on the stage of
pregnancy. The growth and development of the
fetus is important to monitor in antepartum
situations in an attempt to detect complications
such as intrauterine growth retardation and other
malformations.
