We evaluated the impact of fetal testing on maternal anxiety. A consecutive series of high-risk women attending during the third trimester for fetal assessment were each randomly assigned to one of four conditions: (1) high-feedback ultrasonography (n = 11), in which the monitor screen was visible; (2) low-feedback ultrasonography (n = 8), in which specific visual and verbal feedback was denied; (3) fetal heart rate monitoring (n = 11); or (4) a video control (n = 7), in which the women viewed a videotape of an ultrasonographic recording. Assessments were conducted before and after each procedure. No change was found in attitude ratings towards the fetus, although there was a significant reduction in state anxiety from before to after, with the reduction most pronounced in women undergoing high-feedback ultrasonography.
我们评估了胎儿检测对母亲焦虑的影响。一系列在孕晚期前来进行胎儿评估的高危女性被连续纳入研究，并随机分为以下四种情况之一：（1）高反馈超声检查组（n = 11），即监视器屏幕可见；（2）低反馈超声检查组（n = 8），即不提供具体的视觉和言语反馈；（3）胎儿心率监测组（n = 11）；或（4）视频对照组（n = 7），即女性观看超声记录的录像带。在每个程序前后进行评估。尽管从术前到术后状态焦虑有显著降低，且在接受高反馈超声检查的女性中降低最为明显，但对胎儿的态度评分未发现变化。
