Current methods of monitoring the well-being of the unborn baby during labour often result in concern about the unborn baby's health. This leads to delivery by caesarean section, forceps, or vacuum. These babies are usually found to be healthy once born, meaning that the operation was unnecessary. In this study, when an unborn baby appears to be distressed, half of the study participants will be allocated to continue with the current monitoring of the baby's heartbeat. The other half will have a new form of monitoring in labour, fetal oxygen saturation monitoring, added. We will then determine whether the new form of monitoring makes a difference in the number of times women need to have a caesarean section, forceps, or vacuum delivery. It is important to do this research BEFORE the new form of monitoring becomes used routinely. This Australian research is leading the world in letting the health consumer (women) know whether the now monitoring method is effective in practice and ensuring that there are no unforeseen adverse events.

目前在分娩过程中监测未出生婴儿健康状况的方法常常会导致对未出生婴儿健康状况的担忧。这导致通过剖腹产、产钳或真空吸宫术进行分娩。这些婴儿通常在出生后就被发现是健康的，这意味着不需要手术。在这项研究中，当未出生的婴儿显得痛苦时，一半的研究参与者将被分配继续当前对婴儿心跳的监测。补充说，另一半将在分娩过程中进行新形式的监测，即胎儿氧饱和度监测。然后，我们将确定新的监测形式是否会影响女性需要剖腹产、产钳或真空吸宫产的次数。在常规使用新的监测形式之前进行这项研究非常重要。澳大利亚的这项研究处于世界领先地位，让健康消费者（女性）了解现在的监测方法在实践中是否有效，并确保不会出现不可预见的不良事件。
