Fetal Assessment During Labor Chapter 15 Fetal Assessment During Labor All Elsevier items and derived items © 2014, 2010, 2006, 2002, Mosby, Inc., an imprint of Elsevier Inc.

Fetal Assessment During Labor Electronic fetal monitoring is a useful tool for visualizing fetal heart rate (FHR) patterns on a monitor screen or printed tracing First used in 1970s Anticipated effect was a decrease in cerebral palsy; however, the rate has not declined Primary mode of intrapartum assessment in the United States All Elsevier items and derived items © 2014, 2010, 2006, 2002, Mosby, Inc., an imprint of Elsevier Inc.

Basis for Monitoring Fetal response Labor is a period of physiologic stress for fetus Frequent monitoring of fetal status is part of nursing care during labor Fetal oxygen supply must be maintained during labor to prevent fetal compromise All Elsevier items and derived items © 2014, 2010, 2006, 2002, Mosby, Inc., an imprint of Elsevier Inc.

Basis for Monitoring (Cont.) Fetal oxygen supply can decrease due to: Reduction of blood flow through maternal vessels as result of hypertension and hypotension Reduction of oxygen content in maternal blood as result of hemorrhage or severe anemia Alterations in fetal circulation with compression of umbilical cord Reduction in blood flow to intervillous space in placenta All Elsevier items and derived items © 2014, 2010, 2006, 2002, Mosby, Inc., an imprint of Elsevier Inc.

Basis for Monitoring (Cont.) Normal uterine activity during labor Frequency of contractions Duration of contractions Strength of contractions Resting tone Relaxation time All Elsevier items and derived items © 2014, 2010, 2006, 2002, Mosby, Inc., an imprint of Elsevier Inc.

Basis for Monitoring (Cont.) Fetal well-being during labor measured by response of FHR to uterine contractions (UCs) Reassuring FHR patterns are: Baseline FHR in normal range of 110 to 160 beats/min, with no periodic changes and a moderate baseline variability In the preterm infant, baseline FHR may be higher All Elsevier items and derived items © 2014, 2010, 2006, 2002, Mosby, Inc., an imprint of Elsevier Inc.

Basis for Monitoring (Cont.) Fetal compromise Goals of intrapartum FHR monitoring are to identify nonreassuring patterns indicative of fetal compromise Nonreassuring FHR patterns are associated with fetal hypoxemia If uncorrected can progress to fetal hypoxia All Elsevier items and derived items © 2014, 2010, 2006, 2002, Mosby, Inc., an imprint of Elsevier Inc.

Monitoring Techniques Intermittent auscultation (IA) Listening to fetal heart sounds at periodic intervals to assess FHR IA can be performed with: DeLee-Hillis fetoscope Pinard stethoscope Doppler ultrasound device All Elsevier items and derived items © 2014, 2010, 2006, 2002, Mosby, Inc., an imprint of Elsevier Inc.

Question Fetal tachycardia is most common during: maternal fever. umbilical cord prolapse. regional anesthesia. MgSO4 administration. ANS: A Feedback A Correct: Fetal tachycardia can be considered an early sign of fetal hypoxemia and can also result from maternal or fetal infection. B Incorrect: This situation most likely would result in fetal bradycardia, not tachycardia. C Incorrect: This situation most likely would result in fetal bradycardia, not tachycardia. D Incorrect: This situation most likely would result in fetal bradycardia, not tachycardia.
