25
What is amniotic fluid embolism?
-entry of amniotic fluid into maternal circulation thru breaks in uteroplacental membrane
26
Typical presentation of amniotic fluid embolism?
- Tachypnea - Cyanosis - Shock - Bleeding
27
Why is it imperative to delivery baby during amniotic fluid embolism?
-Chest compressions are worthless due to aortcaval compression
28
What is normal fetal HR in utero? What does decreased HR indicate?
- 120-160 | - Asphyxia
29
What may indicate fetal distress?
-absence of HR variability
30
What happens with early deceleration patterns?
- Vagal response to head compression | - Not associated w/ distress
31
What causes late decelerations?
