Maintenance of health and detection and treatment of diseases in unborn children. In the early 1980’s, the introduction of biophysical profile (BPP) scoring greatly facilitated the assessment of fetal health. The BPP assessed fetal movement, tone, breathing, heart rate accelerations, and amniotic fluid volume. A high BPP score indicated a healthy fetus, while a low score reflected a fetus in trouble. Early recognition of a harmful uterine environment allowed timely delivery of the fetus and circumvented complications such as stillbirth or brain damage due to lack of oxygen.
