[2022], 1.2.4 Ensure one-to-one support is maintained by having a midwife remain with the woman throughout labour. FETAL HEART MONITORING Chart your course in FHM No matter what career stage you're in, AWHONN's Fetal Heart Monitoring Program has an education course 1.5.8 If the CTG trace is still pathological after implementing conservative measures: obtain a further urgent review by an obstetrician and a senior midwife, evaluate the whole clinical picture and consider expediting birth, if there are evolving intrapartum risk factors for fetal compromise, have a very low threshold for expediting birth. [2022], 1.4.8 If concerns about differentiation between the maternal and fetal heart rate remain, or if a fetal heart cannot be heard, obtain an urgent review by an obstetrician or senior midwife. Be aware that intrapartum risk factors may increase the risk of fetal compromise, and that intrapartum risk factors that develop as labour progresses are particularly concerning. [2017, amended 2022], 1.4.4 If there is a stable baseline fetal heart rate between 110 and 160beats a minute and normal variability, continue usual care as the risk of fetal acidosis is low. This interactive online program provides a basic introduction to fetal heart monitoring. Caring for individuals with autism, or any intellectual or developmental disability, requires comprehensive training and an open heart. 1.5.7 If the CTG trace is categorised as pathological: obtain an urgent review by an obstetrician and a senior midwife, exclude acute events (for example, cord prolapse, suspected placental abruption or suspected uterine rupture) that need immediate intervention, consider possible underlying causes and undertake conservative measures as indicated (see the section on underlying causes and conservative measures). [2022]. - Sepsis See the section on indications for continuous cardiotocography monitoring in labour. Repetitive and periodic slowing of the fetal heart rate with onset mid to end of the contraction and the lowest point more than 20seconds after the peak of the contraction, and ending after the contraction. 1.2.20 Discuss with the woman and her birth companion(s) the reasons for offering continuous CTG monitoring, and explain that: a combination of antenatal risk factors, intrapartum risk factors and continuous CTG monitoring are used to evaluate the baby's condition in labour, continuous CTG monitoring is used to monitor the baby's heart rate and the labour contractions, it may restrict her mobility and the option to labour in water, a normal CTG trace indicates that the baby is coping well with labour, changes to the baby's heart rate pattern during labour are common and do not necessarily cause concern, however they may represent developing fetal compromise so maintaining continuous CTG monitoring is advised if these occur, if the CTG trace changes or is not normal there will be less certainty about the condition of the baby and so maintaining continuous CTG monitoring is advised, in conjunction with a full assessment including checks for developing intrapartum risk factors such as the presence of meconium, sepsis and slow progress in labour, advice about her care during labour and birth will be based on an assessment of several factors, including her preferences, her condition and the condition of her baby, as well as the findings from the CTG. Gain insight into competency levels for individuals and teams to identify areas that need improvement and deliver targeted education.

Using real-time analytics, GNOSIS equips hospital leaders and risk managers with data to pro-actively identify and invest in areas that will improve quality and patient safety. Do this as follows: use either a Pinard stethoscope or doppler ultrasound, carry out intermittent auscultation immediately after a palpated contraction for at least 1minute, repeated at least once every 15minutes, and record it as a single rate on a partogram and in the woman's notes, record accelerations and decelerations, if heard, palpate (and record on the partogram) the maternal pulse hourly, or more often if there are any concerns, to ensure differentiation between the maternal and fetal heartbeats, if no fetal heartbeat is detected, offer urgent real-time ultrasound assessment to check fetal viability. We'll assume you're ok with this, but you can opt-out if you wish. 1.8.1 To ensure accurate record keeping for CTG: make sure that date and time clocks on the cardiotocograph monitor are set correctly, ensure the recording or paper speed is set at 1cm a minute and that adequate paper is available, label traces with the woman's name, date of birth, hospital number or NHS number and pulse at the start of monitoring, and the date of the CTG.

"In the most severe cases, the baby may suffer brain damage from oxygen deprivation." [2022], 1.3.12 Be aware that meconium is more common post-term, but should still trigger a full risk assessment and discussion with the woman about the option of CTG monitoring. 1.4.29 Take the following into account when categorising early decelerations: they are uncommon, benign and usually associated with head compression, they are not accompanied by any other CTG changes, such as reduced variability or a rise in the baseline fetal heart rate. [2017, amended 2022]. Everything is automated everything from live events to skills checklists to requirements trackers. 2 - reduced O2 delivery at tissue level. [2017, amended 2022], 1.4.33 Take into account any change in the categorisation of the CTG alongside other antenatal and intrapartum risk factors for hypoxia. How does the autonomic nervous system function to keep everything in balance?
