Actocardiogram (ACG) records fetal heart rate, direct fetal movements and uterine contractions using simple probes attached on the pregnant abdomen, and recorded on a moving chart.<br><br> The same diagnosis is achieved as common cardiotocography (CTG), while fetal heart rate increases parallel to fetal movement, and unsolved problems in the CTG was solved by ACG, e.<br><br>g.<br><br> benign physiologic sinusoidal heart rate is diagnosed by cyclically changing fetal movements.<br><br> Fetal hypoxia progresses according to changing ACG till severe fetal brain damage in the loss of fetal heart rate (FHR) variability.<br><br> Fetal short-and long-term outcomes are diagnosed using the ratio of fetal heart rate acceleration duration to the fetal movement bursts duration.<br><br> Fetal behaviour is decided using ACG parameter values.<br><br> The “Actocardiogram” book details these advantages.<br><br>
