title: The responses to repeated vibroacoustic stimulation in a fetus with trisomy 18.
abstract: Observation of the fetal movement and fetal heart rate responses to repeated vibroacoustic stimulation might be useful as a measure to assess fetal well-being. Studies of abnormal fetuses are needed to gain insight in the spectrum of possible responses to stimulation. We present a case of a fetus with trisomy 18 that failed to respond to repeated stimulation.
