  2. Cardiotocography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiotocography

    External cardiotocography can be used for continuous or intermittent monitoring. The fetal heart rate and the activity of the uterine muscle are detected by two transducers placed on the mother's abdomen, with one above the fetal heart to monitor heart rate, and the other at the fundus of the uterus

  3. Contraction stress test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contraction_stress_test

    During uterine contractions, fetal oxygenation is worsened. Late decelerations in fetal heart rate occurring during uterine contractions are associated with increased fetal death rate, growth retardation and neonatal depression. [1] [2] This test assesses fetal heart rate in response to uterine contractions via electronic fetal monitoring.

  4. Fetal scalp blood testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fetal_scalp_blood_testing

    The use of fetal scalp blood testing originated in Germany in 1961 and required 0.25 mL of blood drawn from the fetus. [1] As one of the first methods of monitoring fetal wellbeing during labor, there were many disadvantages including the need for at least 3 cm dilation of the mother and extreme precision from the physician performing the procedure. [9]

  5. Nonstress test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonstress_test

    A normal nonstress test will show a baseline fetal heart rate between 110 and 160 beats per minute with moderate variability (5- to 25-interbeat variability) and 2 qualifying accelerations in 20 minutes with no decelerations. "Reactive" is defined as the presence of two or more fetal heart rate accelerations within a 20-minute period. Each ...

  6. Fetal distress - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fetal_distress

    Fetal distress, also known as non-reassuring fetal status, is a condition during pregnancy or labor in which the fetus shows signs of inadequate oxygenation. [1] Due to its imprecision, the term "fetal distress" has fallen out of use in American obstetrics. [2] [1] [3] The term "non-reassuring fetal status" has largely replaced it. [4]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prenatal_testing

    External fetal monitoring [9] During Labor, after rupture of amnioatic sac Invasive Spiral wire electrode attached to body part (typically the scalp) of fetus via cervical insertion Immediately Heart rate irregularities, monitoring fetal heart rate Fetal bruising/infection at attachment site

  9. Partogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partogram

    A partogram or partograph is a composite graphical record of key data (maternal and fetal) during labour entered against time on a single sheet of paper. Relevant measurements might include statistics such as cervical dilation, fetal heart rate, duration of labour and vital signs. [1] In, 1954 Friedman prepared the cervicography. [2]
