What could it mean if FHR is high - ANSWER infection, low o2, young
Normal fetal heart rate range - ANSWER 110-160
What could it mean if FHR is low - ANSWER post date pregnancy
What is the number one way to know a babies age - ANSWER sonogram
What do you do if theres low amniotic fluid, variable decels - ANSWER amnioinfusion
If baby is stressed, the baby will divert the blood flow to the brain, heart, and adrenals. This
organ won't get good blood flow which will lead to what? - ANSWER kidneys, low urine
output, low amniotic fluid
What category tracing is absent variability without decels - ANSWER 2
What category tracing is absent variability with decels - ANSWER 3
Influences on fetal heart patterns that are outside the fetus - ANSWER extrinsic
What type of influences are associated with maternal-fetal exchange:
-placenta
-maternal utero placental circulation
-fetal placental circulation
1
, -placental transfer
-uterine blood flow
-umbilical cord
-amniotic fluid - ANSWER extrinsic
ALL transfer takes place here - ANSWER intervillous space
All babies have this with uterine contraction but it's worse with a problematic placenta - AN-
SWER transient hypoxemia
When is the only time you give an amnioinfusion - ANSWER cord compression
Influences on fetal heart rate that are inside the babies heart - ANSWER intrinsic
Where is the most oxygenated blood - ANSWER ductus venosus, liver
Where does the blood go to avoid the lungs - ANSWER foramen ovale
If the baby has this, then they DO NOT have metabolic acidosis - ANSWER moderate vari-
ability
What would cause a sympathetic response (things speed up, accelerations) - ANSWER in-
fection, movement , loud noise, repositioning
What would cause parasympathetic response - ANSWER variable decel, early decal, post
dates, head compression
