beats/min for 10 minutes or longer.
1.) Which fetal part is in the uterine fun-
dus?
2.) Where is the fetal back located?
3.) What is the presenting fetal part?

1.) Bradycardia not accompanied by ab-
sent baseline variability, tachycardia
2.) Minimal baseline variability, absent
baseline variability not accompanied by
recurrent decelerations, marked base-
line variability
3.) No accelerations produced in re-
sponse to fetal stimulation
4.) Recurrent variable decelerations ac-
companied by minimal or moderate
baseline variability, prolonged decelera-
tions (greater than or equal to 7 min-
utes but less than 10 minutes, recur-
rent late decelerations with moderate
baseline variability, variable decelera-
tions with other characteristics such as
slow return to baseline, "overshoots" or
"shoulders"

of the following: Recurrent late deceler-

ations, recurrent variable decelerations,

bradycardia
2.) Sinusoidal pattern
As irregular waves or fluctuations in the
baseline FHR of two cycles per minute or
greater. It is a characteristic of the base-
line FHR and does not include acceler-
ations or decelerations of the FHR. Vari-
ability is quantified in beats per minute
How can Variability of the FHR be de- and is measured from the peak to the
scribed? trough of a single cycle.
What kind of Variability is considered
Moderate
normal?
How are Accelerations of the FHR de-
fined?

As a visually apparent abrupt onset to
peak increase in FHR above the baseline
rate. The peak is at least 15 beats/min
above the baseline, and the acceleration
lasts 15 seconds or more, with the return
to baseline less than 2 minutes from the
beginning of the acceleration.
1.) Spontaneous fetal movement
2.) Vaginal examination
3.) Electrode application
4.) Fetal scalp application
5.) Fetal reaction to external sounds
What are the causes of Accelerations?
6.) Breech presention
7.) Occiput posterior position
8.) Uterine contractions
9.) Fundal pressure
10.) Abdominal palpation
What are the nursing interventions for
None required.
Accelerations?
A visually apparent, gradual decrease in
and return to baseline FHR associated
with uterine contractions.
What are Early Decelerations of the
FHR?
Head compression resulting from the fol-
lowing:
