NCT06497205

Brief Summary

This study is a planned research project to test and demonstrate the feasibility of using the Femom device for monitoring fetal heart rate remotely. The main goal is to learn if the remote recordings using Femom provide reliable information about the baby's heart rate. We will also establish reference standards of heart rate variability in uncomplicated pregnancies at different stages of pregnancy. Additionally, we will compare the heart rate variability in FGR and diabetic pregnancies to normal pregnancies.
