Abstract
Summary: Subjective assessment of daily fetal movement rates is a simple clinical guide to fetal well‐being. Fetal death is unlikely to occur until the rate falls below 10 movements/l2 hours whilst a rate of less than 21 movements/l2 hours is strongly associated with a small‐for‐dates fetus and indicates the necessity for further assessment of placental function.Keywords
