What Is a Normal Bpp Score

What does the biophysical profile test score indicate? A total score of 10 points or eight out of 10 points with normal amniotic fluid volume is regarded as normal. A score of six indicates that there may be problems that require further evaluation or monitoring.

What is a bad BPP score?

A score of 8 to 10 is “reassuring,” though the test may be repeated later on. A score of 6 may require a second BPP within 12 to 24 hours, or, depending on how far along you are in your pregnancy, your baby may be delivered.

How do you read BPP?

Biophysical Profile Test Score Results A total score of 10 out of 10 or 8 out of 10 with normal fluid is considered normal. A score of 6 is considered equivocal, and a score of 4 or less is abnormal [1,3, 6]. A score of less than 8 indicates the fetus may not be receiving enough oxygen.
