FHT Terminology

4. baseline less than 110 bpm
5. a type of variability in which there is no difference between 1 beat to the next
6. the start of 1 contraction to the start of the next
8. a type of variability in which there is more than 25 bpm difference
10. An NST that has 2 or more accelerations
11. a type of deceleration that hits the nadir fast and is due to the cord being compressed
13. a type of deceleration that last between 2-10 minutes
14. a type of variability in which tells you the fetus has good oxygenation
17. this category of a strip indicates severe fetal issues
19. a type of deceleration that takes at least 30 seconds to hit the nadir and is due to fetal head compression
20. a special type of fetal heart rate that indicates severe anemia in the fetus
21. this category of a strip indicates a potential problem
22. this category of a strip is good

1. the lowest part of a decel is called this
2. a type of deceleration that takes at least 30 seconds to hit the nadir and it occurs after the peak of the contraction
3. baseline greater than 160 bpm, common when mom has infection
7. The average fetal heart rate, not including accels or decels
9. the time that 1 contraction lasts
12. an NST that has 0 or 1 acceleration, should be followed up with additional testing
14. a unit used to measure the intensity of a contraction that uses an internal monitor
15. a special intervention that can be done to help with recurrent variable decelerations
16. in increase in heart rate of 15 bpm and lasts for at least 15 seconds
18. a type of variability in which the difference is 1-5 bpm
