Recommendations:
There is insufficient evidence to
recommend for or against home uterine
activity monitoring (HUAM) in high-risk
pregnancies as a screening test for
preterm labor, but recommendations
against its use may be made on other
grounds (see Clinical Intervention).
HUAM is not recommended in normal-risk
pregnancies.
To refer to the Clinical
Interventions or view the complete

to Clinical Preventive Services: Second
Edition (1996).
