Reduced Fetal Movements , RCOG Guideline

Описание: Reduced fetal movements means fetal kick count of less than than 10 in one hour or 20 in 2 hours. Maternal perception of fetal movement is one of the first signs of fetal life and is regarded as a manifestation of fetal wellbeing.
Movements are first perceived by the mother between 18 and 20 weeks of gestation and rapidly acquire a regular pattern. Fetal movements have been defined as any discrete kick, flutter, swish or roll.
A significant reduction or sudden alteration in fetal movement is a potentially important clinical sign. It has been suggested that reduced or absent fetal movements may be a warning sign of impending fetal death. Studies of fetal physiology using ultrasound have demonstrated an
association between RFM and poor perinatal outcome.
The majority of women (55%) experiencing a stillbirth perceived a reduction in fetal movements prior to diagnosis. Reduced fetal movements is a common contributory factor in stillbirth.

This Channel is providing knowledge in the field of Obstetrics and Gynaecology. Obstetrics is related to medical and surgical care before, during, and after a woman gives birth. Obstetrics focuses on caring for and maintaining a woman’s overall health during maternity. This includes pregnancy, labor, childbirth, and the postpartum period. Gynaecology on the other hand focuses on women’s bodies and their reproductive health. It includes the diagnosis, treatment, and care of women’s reproductive system. This includes vagina, uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes. Gynaecology also includes screening for and treating issues associated with women’s breasts. Gynaecology is the overarching field of women’s health from puberty through adulthood. It represents most of the reproductive care you’ll receive during your lifetime. If you become pregnant, you’ll need to go to an obstetrician.
