  • Front
  • Back
Abrupt decrease of baseline by at least 15bpm. Decreased lasts 2 to <10 minutes.
Prolonged Deceleration
Decrease of baseline. Onset occers at peak of cx with late recovery.
Late Deceleration
Decrease of baseline. Nadir of decel occurs at peak of cx. Decel resembles cx.
Early Deceleration
Mean FHR rounded to increment of 5 bpm during a 10-minute period.
Baseline Rate
Baseline rate <110bpm for >10 minutes.
Bradychardia
Acceleration >2 minutes and <10 minutes duration.
Prolonged Acceleration
Fluctuations in baseline FHR of 2 cycles/min or greater
Variability
Amplitude of FHR from peak to trough more than undetectable and <5bpm
Minimal Variability
Abrupt decrease by at least 15bpm of baseline. Onset to nadir <30 seconds. Duration 15 seconds to <2 minutes.
Variable Deceleration
Amplitude of FHR from peak to trough 6-25 bpm.
Moderate Variability
Insufficient oxygenation of the blood.
Hypoxemia
Cause of the jaggedness of the line on fetal heart moniters.
Long Term Variability
Lack of adequate amount of oxygen.
Hypoxia
Baseline rate >160 bpm for >10 minutes.
Tachycardia
Decrease in oxygen and increase in carbon dioxide.
Asphyxia
Insufficient oxygenation of the blood.
Hypoxemia
Cause of the jaggedness of the line on fetal heart moniters.
Long Term Variability
Lack of adequate amount of oxygen.
Hypoxia
Baseline rate >160 bpm for >10 minutes.
Tachycardia
Decrease in oxygen and increase in carbon dioxide.
Asphyxia
Abnormal condition in which the blood's pH drops to acidic levels.
Acidemia
Apparent abrupt increase >15bpm above the baseline peak. Lasts 15 seconds to <2 minutes.
Acceleration
Amplitude of FHR from peak to trough >25bpm.
Marked Variability
Condition of change in pH of blood due to high carbon dioxide level caused by pulmonary insufficiency.
Respiratory Acidosis
Amplitude of FHR from peak to trough is undetectable.
Absent Variability
Caused by an increase in acid that alters pH.
Metabolic Acidosis
Time measured between fetal heart beats. Makes the line itself either jagged or smooth.
Short Term Variability
Saw-toothed undulating pattern that is ominous.
Sinusoidal Pattern
Undulating pattern that is NOT ominous.
Pseudo-sinusoidal Pattern
Lowest point of deceleration.
Nadir
