Abstract
Assessment of fetal well-being is one of the key aims of obstetric care. This article reviews various tools and interventions that are currently available to assess fetal well-being, including the ongoing assessment of risk factors (leading to the triaging of women into appropriate pathways of care) through to the assessment of fetal well-being with the computerised CTG. Included is a brief overview of screening, symphysis fundal height measurements, growth and Doppler scanning, and perception of fetal movements. A good history, clinical assessment, and appropriate use and interpretation of investigations form a holistic approach for assessment of fetal well-being.
