Summary

This trial will compare two methods of fetal testing: in-clinic NSTs and remote monitoring belts, to see which one is more effective at improving completion rates.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for English-speaking pregnant individuals with a single baby, between 30 and 35 weeks along, who need fetal monitoring based on specific health guidelines. It's not for those with multiple babies, BMI over 45 before pregnancy, pacemakers or defibrillators, skin infections near the belly, abnormal amniotic fluid levels or if they plan to give birth within two weeks.
What is being tested?
The study compares remote nonstress tests (NST) using an FDA-approved Invu monitoring belt to standard in-clinic NSTs for checking baby's health. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of these two methods to see which is more effective at ensuring tests are completed.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves non-invasive monitoring techniques rather than medication or surgery, side effects are minimal but may include discomfort from wearing the belt or potential anxiety from remote testing.
