fetal acidosis- pH below 7.2
92

pulse over 100, fever, inadequate contractions, increasing maternal apprehension
94
DO NOT do a vaginal exam if there is this. Why?
fresh bleeding, could show placenta previa

97
What's wrong with late decelerations?
Suggests uteroplacental insufficiency or reduced blood flow through the intervillous spaces of uterus during uterine contractions, May be caused by hypertonia or abnormal uterine tone R/T administration of oxytocin
98
What are the interventions for late decelerations
If oxytocin is being used—stop it or slow rate
– Turn woman to left lateral side—will send more blood to uterus—take pressure off of vena cava & aorta
– Increase IV rate & O2 administration
– Report any pattern changes—especially prolonged decelerations & persistent patterns
– Prepare for birth—C-section
99
What's wrong with variable decelerations?
Cord compression—most common cause
| – Oligohydramnios—post term preg or intrauterine growth restriction
100
What are the interventions for variable decelerations?
Change of position—left lateral or knee chest—to relieve pressure on the cord
– Administer IV fluids & O2 – Aminoinfusion may be prescribed
