Fetal heartbeat monitoring in pregnancy
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how to measure and understand an unborn baby’s heart rhythm using special ultrasound/electrical testing. It may help doctors better evaluate abnormal or possibly abnormal fetal heart rates.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are currently pregnant and have had an uncomplicated pregnancy after 12 weeks
- Your pregnancy is more than 12 weeks along
- The study is for pregnancies where the baby’s heart rate or rhythm is abnormal (or there is a higher risk of it)
- That heart-rate/rhythm concern should be present or expected after 15 weeks of pregnancy

This study checks unborn babies’ heart signals using special scans during pregnancy and then checks the baby’s heart shortly after birth. It may help researchers understand why certain high-risk pregnancies can lead to fetal demise and improve care.
This study tests whether a routine heart recording test (ECG) can capture fetal (baby) heart activity during late pregnancy. It may help researchers find simpler ways to monitor baby heart rhythm without special equipment.
This study uses automated ultrasound measurements to track how a baby’s heart is working during pregnancy. It compares babies who have a specific congenital heart problem with babies without it, to understand what ultrasound can detect.
This study tests a special belt (Nemo Fetal Monitoring System) that tracks your baby's heart rate while you exercise. It aims to see if the belt works well and is safe during workouts in the third trimester.
This study tests if remote monitoring of your baby's heartbeat from home is a safe and effective option for high-risk pregnancies. It may reduce the need for frequent hospital visits.
This study tests a new method to separate a pregnant person's heart signal from their baby's heart signal during electrocardiogram (ECG) recordings. This technology could help doctors monitor both mother and baby's heart health more accurately during pregnancy.
