causevasoconstrictionand increasetheFHR
Fetalheartratevariabilityis definedas fluctuationsin thebaselinethatare irregularin
and . - ANSWER B. Amplitudeand frequency
An increasein thefetalheartrateimmediatelyprecedinga variabledecelerationis causedby:
- ANSWER A. Occlusionof theumbilicalvein
Whenassessinga FHR tracing,thefirst stepis to: - ANSWER C. Establishthebaselinerate
Which decelerationin theFHR is consideredbenignanddoesnotrequirean interventionto correct?
- ANSWER A. Early deceleration
If theumbilicalvein is the only vesseloccludedduring cord compression- ANSWER B.
Oxygenatedbloodmay be restrictedfrom beingdeliveredto thefetus
During a fetalsleepcycle,FHR variabilityis usually . - ANSWER C. Minimal
