there has been no change in anything with fetal monitoring
except what - CORRECT ANSWERS- increase c/s rate
listening with fetoscope or hand held doppler ultrasound -
CORRECT ANSWERS- intermittent auscultation
detects heart sounds - CORRECT ANSWERS- fetoscope
detects reflected sound from heart motion - CORRECT ANSWERS-
doppler
detects fhr baseline
detects fhr rhythm
verifies presence of irregular rhythm
detects increases and decreases from FHR baseline
, clarifies double counting or half counting by EFM - CORRECT
ANSWERS- fetoscope
detects fhr baseline
detects fhr rhythm
detects increases and decreases - CORRECT ANSWERS- doppler
direct monitoring of fetal ECG
indicated when continuous detection of FHR clinically necessary
and not achievable by US transducer - CORRECT ANSWERS- fetal
spiral electrode
fetal spiral electrode requires what - CORRECT ANSWERS-
ruptured membranes and 2 cm dilation
when the heart rate goes up when contractions goes up, what is
on the strip - CORRECT ANSWERS- moms heart rate
results from mechanical limitations of the monitor, electronic
interference or weak signal. appears as gaps or dots with external
monitoring and irregular lines of varying lengths with a fetal scalp
