Patient perspectives on telemonitoring in low- and high-risk pregnancies: A feasibility study using a wireless fetal heart rate monitor

The use of a wireless fetal heart rate monitor for self-monitoring in both low- and high-risk pregnancies was associated with high user satisfaction and acceptable usability. Despite some barriers such as search time and signal loss, most participants were able to obtain interpretable traces of adequate duration. These findings support the feasibility of self-administered fetal monitoring in both home and clinical settings, highlighting its potential role for remote monitoring in pregnancies.
