Summary
This pilot study tests a special belt that measures the mother's heart rate, breathing, blood pressure, and the baby's heart rate and movements. 35 pregnant women will wear the belt for 2 hours in a hospital while their vitals are also checked with standard monitors. The goal is to see if the belt is accurate, comfortable, and easy to use. If it works well, it could one day allow remote pregnancy monitoring.
