|---|---|
| Concept | Fetal Heart Rate |
| Description | Characteristics about the fetal heart rate. |
| Use | Use to record the intermittent observations of the heart rate and heart beat characteristics of a fetus during pregnancy. Only to be used where the subject of care is the fetus. |
| Misuse | Not to be used to record more the complex details required for intervals of electronic fetal heart monitoring - use the specialisation OBSERVATION.fetal_heart-monitoring instead. Not to be used for recording the heart rate of infants, children or adults. |
| Purpose | To record details about the fetal heart rate via intermittent observations. |
