Questions with Latest Update
normal fetal heart rate range - Answer-110-160
what could it mean if FHR is high - Answer-infection, low o2, young
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
-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 -
Answer-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
variability
what would cause a sympathetic response (things speed up, accelerations) - Answer-
infection, movement , loud noise, repositioning
what would cause parasympathetic response - Answer-variable decel, early decal, post
dates, head compression
what nerve decreases bp - Answer-vagus nerve
during this, the blood flow gets shunted to the brain heart and adrenals. can't tolerate
labor - Answer-hypoxemia
the degree of hypoxemia a fetus can tolerate before true tissue hypoxia and acidosis
occur - Answer-fetal reserve
3 things that indicate fetal well being - Answer-normal baseline, moderate variability, no
late or variable decels
signs of utero-placental insufficiency - Answer-late or variable decels
what is the first thing you should do with recurrent late decels - Answer-change position
what should pH be - Answer-7.10 or higher
what should CO2 be - Answer-60 or lower
what should base excess or base deficit be - Answer-12 or lower
if CO2 is greater than 60, what type of acidosis - Answer-respiratory
if base excess greater than 12, what type of acidosis - Answer-metabolic
the approximate mean FHR rounded to increments of ____ bpm during a ____ minute
window, excluding:
-accelerations and deceleratons
-periods of marked variability - Answer-baseline fetal heart rate, 5, 10
for baseline fetal heart rate there must be at least ___ minutes of identifiable baseline
segments in a ___ minute window or the baseline for that period is indeterminate -
Answer-2, 10
bradycardia is a baseline of < ____ bpm for > ___ minutes - Answer-110, 10
