Although there is evidence for the clinical feasibility of ambulatory NIFECG, the disparity in the literature limits the ability to draw firm conclusions. Further studies to establish repeatability and device validity, whilst developing standardized FHR parameters and set evidence-based standards for signal success for NIFECG are required to ascertain the clinical benefit and potential limitations of ambulatory outpatient FHR monitoring.
