Clinical Trial Summary

Prospective mono-centric randomized open-label study (randomization 1: 1, 2 groups) comparing a group of patients who received conventional information to a group of patients who had been sensitized to a fetal active movement count technique.

The study will take place at the University Hospital Center of Saint-Etienne in the gynecology-obstetrics department.

An information brochure on the study will be handed over at the end of the term consultation to 41+0 weeks of gestation. After collecting the consent of the patient, the distribution between the two groups will be done by randomization. Thus, for the fetal active movement count group, fetal active movement count education will be proposed during the term consultation with the submission of an information brochure. The "control" group will also receive a simple information pamphlet with, in writing, what patients currently receive orally: definition of active fetal movements, and the need to consult if the patient perceives less movements of her fetus .The principal objective is to compare perinatal morbidity in relation with the sensation of decrease active fetal movements in case of late pregnancy, according to the fact if the patients use or not the AFM's count.
