The fetal biophysical profile may assist the clinician to ascertain the fetal condition at the time of testing (acute markers), the degree of fetal compromise (gradual hypoxia concept), the presence of chronic fetal stress or possibility of in utero death due to cord accident (oligohydramnios), intrapartum complications such as abnormal heart rate patterns and abruptio (grade III) placenta, and impending fetal infection in patients with PROM (if performed daily). In addition it may identify major congenital anomalies which may drastically alter obstetric management. It remains to be seen if the use of computer-assisted systems for concurrent observation of the biophysical activities, or the addition of more biophysical variables, will further improve the accuracy of this testing method.
