Fetal Monitoring Test In Delhi
The moment a pregnancy test turns positive, your new journey of care, excitement, and responsibility begins. During the pregnancy journey, regular screenings and monitoring to ensure the health and well-being of the mother and the baby are extremely essential. It includes several tests and scans; among those prenatal assessments, NST (Non-Stress Test) and CTG (Cardiotocography) play a vital role in fetal monitoring as they help assess the baby’s heart rate, movements, and response inside the womb.
What Is Fetal Monitoring?
Fetal monitoring is a medical procedure in which the health and well-being of the fetus is checked during pregnancy and labour. Gynaecologists and fetal medicine specialists perform this to detect any signs of fetal distress at an early stage and ensure timely medical attention when required. It involves tracking the baby’s heart rate, movements, and response to contractions or external stimuli to assess the baby’s overall condition inside the womb. If you are looking for fetal monitoring tests in Delhi, visit Singh Nursing Home. Our specialists are trained to perform these tests accurately.
Importance Of Fetal Monitoring Tests
Fetal monitoring tests are essential in many aspects of pregnancy care, as they help assess the baby’s health, detect complications early, and ensure timely medical management during pregnancy and labour.
- Assessment of the fetal well-being
- Help doctors identify if early delivery is necessary
- Supports safer labour and delivery
- Detection of the potential complications
- Monitoring high-risk pregnancies
What Is NST?
NST stands for Non-Stress Test. It is a simple, safe, and non-invasive procedure used to monitor the fetal heart rate in response to the baby’s movements and uterine contractions. The results of the NST can be classified as ‘reactive’ or ‘non-reactive’, helping doctors assess the baby’s overall well-being and detect any signs of fetal distress.
NST is usually recommended after 28 weeks of pregnancy, especially in high-risk pregnancies, cases of decreased fetal movement, post-term pregnancies, high blood pressure, gestational diabetes, twin pregnancies, or when there are concerns regarding the baby’s health and well-being.
How is NST Performed?
This procedure is performed by asking you to lie down in a semi-reclined position, after which two sensors are placed on your abdomen using elastic belts. One sensor monitors the baby’s heart rate, while the other records uterine contractions and fetal movements. Doctors evaluate the readings from the continuous display on the monitor to identify any signs of fetal distress or abnormalities.

What Is CTG?
Cardiotocography, or CTG, is a more comprehensive form of fetal monitoring that monitors your baby’s heart rate and uterine contractions during pregnancy and labour. It is a non-invasive and external electronic monitoring method that helps healthcare providers assess your baby’s well-being and detect any signs of fetal distress before birth and throughout the labour process.
This procedure uses external sensors placed on your abdomen to track the baby’s heart rate and the frequency and intensity of uterine contractions.
CTG is usually recommended in high-risk pregnancies, reduced fetal movements, high blood pressure or pre-eclampsia, during induced labour, for twin or multiple pregnancies and when having previous pregnancy complications or stillbirth history.
How is CTG Performed?
CTG is performed by asking you to lie down in a comfortable position with two external sensors placed on the abdomen using elastic belts. One sensor is used to record the baby’s heart rate while the other is for monitoring the uterine contractions. These sensors are connected to a CTG machine which displays and records the readings on the monitor in the form of printed graphics. This procedure usually takes 20 to 40 minutes, depending upon the condition being monitored.
