Women and health professionals’ views and experiences of reduced fetal movements in low- and middle-income countries: A scoping review

Despite variations in women's experiences of fetal movements across different settings, studies have primarily focused on awareness of the quantity of movements. Further research that delves deeper into the knowledge and experiences of women and health professionals utilising both quantitative and qualitative approaches is needed to better inform initiatives which aim to raise awareness of RFM to prevent adverse outcomes.

Abstract

Despite variations in women's experiences of fetal movements across different settings, studies have primarily focused on awareness of the quantity of movements. Further research that delves deeper into the knowledge and experiences of women and health professionals utilising both quantitative and qualitative approaches is needed to better inform initiatives which aim to raise awareness of RFM to prevent adverse outcomes.
