Abstract
There is controversy about the value of continuous versus intermittent auscultation of the fetal heart during labour, but there is no agreement on what constitutes normal heart rate of a term fetus. There are variations between the definitions adopted by different countries, and even within a single country. We propose 110-160 beats per minute for clinical use.
