Doppler‐based fetal heart rate analysis markers for the detection of early intrauterine growth restriction

One indicator for fetal risk of mortality is intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). Whether markers reflecting the impact of growth restriction on the cardiovascular system, computed from a Doppler‐derived heart rate signal, would be suitable for its detection antenatally was studied.
