Correct Answer � A
Explanation

Ans. is A. i.e. NST
The answer should be CTG as the picture shown has toco probe but since that’s not in the option then the next best answer will be NST since both measures the same parameters.
- Nonstress test (a procedure that measures the fetal heart rate in response to fetal movements)
- A cardiotocograph is used to monitor the fetal heart rate and presence or absence of uterine contractions.
- The test is typically termed “reactive” (also “reassuring”) or “nonreactive” (also “nonreassuring”).
