⚠️ Therapeutic Goods Administration - TGA safety advisory: Baby deaths associated with home-use foetal heart monitors

Using a home-use foetal heart monitor to check a baby’s heartbeat may seem reassuring but it can be dangerously misleading. The TGA has received reports of instances where they have provided false reassurance, leading to delayed medical attention and deaths.

There are NO home-use foetal heart monitors approved for sale in Australia by the TGA.

These devices are not a substitute for professional care. DO NOT rely on home-use foetal heart monitors to check your baby’s heartbeat.

If you are concerned about your unborn baby’s wellbeing, seek immediate attention from your midwife or doctor.

The TGA advises expectant parents to exercise extreme caution when considering using home-use foetal heart monitors to check their baby’s wellbeing.
