Antepartum detection, classification, determination of severity, and ultimately treatment of the fetus at risk for death and damage in utero form the very basis of modern perinatal medicine. The availability of accurate methods for assessing the fetus in utero are now becoming available. In extrauterine medicine, assessment of risk is based in part on the patient's activities and response to intrinsic and extrinsic stimuli. In extrauterine medicine, differentiation of normal sleep from coma is made by assessment of multiple biophysical variables and responses. It is most likely that the same principles hold true for differentiating the normal sleeping fetus from the asphyxiated fetus. Biophysical profile scoring offers one method for differentiation. It is likely that incorporation of this principle will improve the quality of perinatal care.
