Nonstress test. A nonstress test (NST) is a screening test used in pregnancy. A cardiotocograph is used to monitor the fetal heart rate. [edit on Wikidata] The premise of the NST is that a well-oxygenated, non-acidemic fetus will spontaneously have temporary increases in the fetal heart rate (FHR). Vibroacoustic stimulation can wake the fetus, and is sometimes used to speed up the test or to facilitate further evaluation of a nonreactive nonstress test.
Non-Stress Test in Pregnancy A non-stress test (NST) checks the health of your baby by looking at your babyâs heartbeat and movement during pregnancy. The test may be used when: â¢ Your baby is not moving as much as usual. â¢ You are near the end of pregnancy or past your due date. â¢ Your pregnancy is high risk. About the Test NST is often given after 28 weeks of pregnancy when your baby is able to respond to the test. â¢ For a high risk pregnancy, the test may be given before 28 weeks. â¢ If admitted to the hospital during your pregnancy, the test may be given 1 to 2 times a day to check the health of your baby.
