dc.description.abstract Perinatal mortality is a global health problem that disproportionally affects developing countries. Despite significant advances made in recent decades, control of perinatal mortality is hampered by the lack of applicability of these advances in resource‐limited countries. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop and evaluate low‐cost, widely applicable interventions. One set of promising interventions may be those aimed at increasing maternal awareness of decreased fetal movements. In this issue, Askeland Winje and colleagues report the results of a systematic review assessing the benefits, adverse effects and cost‐effectiveness of such interventions. The authors found insufficient evidence to issue recommendations for clinical practice. This is in line with a recently updated systematic review (Mangesi et al. Cochrane Database Syst Rev 2015; DOI: 10.1002/14651858.CD004909.pub3) and strongly emphasises the need for high‐quality evidence on the topic... en_US
