What are the components of a biophysical profile during pregnancy?

Used to determine the risk of intrauterine fetal compromise, a biophysical profile combines fetal heart rate monitory (nonstress test) and fetal ultrasound. The profile includes: 1. breathing; 2. body movement; 3. muscle tone; 4. amniotic fluid volume; and 5. fetal heart rate (FHR) reactivity.
