The main objective of this study is to evaluate whether digital fetal scalp stimulation improves fetal well-being in fetuses with suspicious or pathological cardiotocographic recordings, showing an improvement in cardiotocographic recording patterns and normal values in intrapartum fetal scalp blood results. Upon detection of a suspicious or pathologic cardiotocographic recording, the investigators need to perform an objective verification of fetal well-being. Currently, fetal scalp blood is the reference test to assess intrapartum fetal hypoxia, according to the protocols of the Spanish Society of Gynecology and Obstetrics. This procedure lasts about 5 minutes and consists of taking a small sample of the fetal scalp, through a vaginal exploration, the blood is collected in a thin tube and analyzed by a machine in the delivery room obtaining the results in a few minutes.
