1.Introduction to the Fetal Monitor
Role of the Electronic Fetal Monitor/Classification/Terminology/ Basic Review/National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Guidelines/Clinical Application/ Assessing Uterine Activity/Predicting the Oxygenated Fetus/Identifying the Oxygenated Compensated Fetus/Guiding Delivery Timing of the Fetus with Progressive Stress Despite Intervention/ Recognizing Abnormal Patterns Present from the Outset That Are Compatible with Possible Fetal Jeopardy, Possible Decompensation/Limitations/A Pattern Compatible with A Well-oxygenated Fetus in Labor Might Be Followed by a Poor Infant Outcome/A Fetus with a Pattern Associated with Decompensation Might Be Healthy at Birth/Fetuses with Remarkably Similar Fetal Monitoring Patterns Might Have Remarkably Different Outcomes
2.Basic Pattern Components
Bradycardia/Tachycardia/Variability/ Marked Variability: >25 beats per minute/Moderate Variability: 6 to 25 beats per minute/Minimal Variability: ≤5 beats per minute/Absent Variability/Loss of Variability Associated with Sinus Node Suppression (as Opposed to Loss of Baseline/Variability/Role of Autocorrelation/Long-versus Short-Term Variability/Periodic and Nonperiodic Changes/Accelerations/Classic/Stimulation/Activity/Periodic Accelerations/Double-Form Accelerations/ Lambda Pattern/Late Accelerations/Prolonged Accelerations/ Marked Accelerations/Atypical Accelerations/No Variability in Accelerations Decelerations/Early Decelerations/Late Decelerations/Variable Decelerations/ Prolonged Decelerations
