GEBHARDT, G S. 'Reds flags' in antenatal care: Fetal movements and fetal growth. SAMJ, S. Afr. med. j. [online]. 2018, vol.108, n.12, pp.1021-1023. ISSN 2078-5135.  http://dx.doi.org/10.7196/samj.2018.v108i12.13444.

Poor fetal growth in late pregnancy is a very common cause of stillbirth or fetal distress during labour. It is associated with reduced fetal movements, which can be detected by the mother antenatally. A simple management protocol is suggested that can be implemented at any hospital that has access to basic ultrasound scanning and electronic fetal heart rate monitoring.
