2 mar 2022 · Fetal decelerations refer to short-term but clear decreases of the fetal heart rate (FHR) identified during fetal heart monitoring. They are classified into three categories according to their shape and timing related to uterine contractions: early, late, and variable decelerations.

Determine the presence of accelerations or decelerations from baseline. Identify changes or trends in FHR patterns over time. In addition to monitoring fetal heart rate patterns, information about the effects of labor on the fetus can also be learned by observing the pattern of uterine contractions.
28 sie 2023 · Early deceleration is defined as a symmetrical decrease and return of fetal heart rate (FHR) that is associated with a uterine contraction. The decrease is gradual and defined by the onset of deceleration to a nadir of 30 seconds or longer, with the nadir occurring at the same time as the peak of the uterine contraction.
9 mar 2024 · Deceleration occurs when the FHR temporarily slows during labor. Three types of deceleration may occur: early, late, and variable. While early decelerations are usually normal, late and variable decelerations can point to a problem.
7 sie 2023 · Electronic fetal monitoring is widely utilized intrapartum to assess fetal status, to prevent adverse neonatal outcomes such as fetal asphyxia or cerebral palsy. This activity reviews the physiology, consequences, and management of variable decelerations.
30 wrz 2015 · Most accelerations coincide with fetal movements and are a sign of a neurologically responsive fetus that does not have hypoxia/acidosis. Before 32 weeks of gestation, their amplitude and frequency may be lower (10 seconds and 10 bpm of amplitude).
30 sty 2023 · Late deceleration is defined as a visually apparent, gradual decrease in the fetal heart rate typically following the uterine contraction. The gradual decrease is defined as, from onset to nadir taking 30 seconds or more.
