Answer»

The correct choice is (b) Cardiotocograph

To explain: The instrument which carries out a CONTINUOUS and simultaneous recording of the instantaneous foetal heart rate and labour activity is called cardiotocograph. In ADDITION to detecting long-term bradycardia or TACHYCARDIA, this instrument helps in the evaluation of foetal heart rate response of the undisturbed circulatory SYSTEM and response stimulated by uterine contractions.
