Final answer:

The placental grade is not included in the fetal biophysical profile (BPP).

Step-by-step explanation:

The assessment that is not included in the fetal biophysical profile (BPP) is placental grade. The fetal biophysical profile evaluates five criteria: fetal movement, fetal tone, fetal heart rate, amniotic fluid index, and placental grade. The placental grade is not one of the criteria assessed in the BPP.
