|
visualization of amniotic fluid from cervix, pooling of amniotic fluid inthe posterior vaginal fornix, pH above 6.5 in fluid collected from vagina using nitrazine paper; or visualization of "ferning on a sample of fluid on an air dried microscope slide

|
what is a late deceleration?
|
a gradual reduction in fetal heart rate that starts at or after the peak of contraction and has a gradual return to the baseline...it is associated with uteroplacental insufficiency, common among these are maternal hypotension often seen from epidurals and uterine hyperstimulation form oxytocin admin

|
what is a variable deceleration?
|
an abrupt decrease in fetal heart rate, usually followed by an abrupt return to baseline that occurs variably in tis timing relative to contraction...it is the most common type of decel and occurs due to umbilical cord compression.

|
shoulder dystocia and it is an Ob emergency requiring efforts to reduce the shoulder including the Mcroberts manaeuver (hyperflexion of the hips) suprapubic pressure, cutting an episotomy, or rotation of the body.
