Continuous fetal heart rate monitoring is widely used during labor even in low risk pregnancies. Consensus is necessary to define and interpret accurately the different FHR patterns. The normal FHR tracing include baseline rate between 110-160 beats per minute (bpm), moderate variability (6-25 bpm), presence of accelerations and no decelerations. Uterine activity is monitored simultaneously: contractions frequency, duration, amplitude and relaxation time must be also normal. Abnormal baseline heart rate during 10 minutes or more is termed tachycardia above 160 bpm (except for FIGO above 150) and bradycardia below 110 bpm. Variability is minimal below 6 bpm and absent when non visible. Decelerations are classified as early, variable, late, and prolonged. Early and late decelerations have an onset gradual decrease of FHR, in contrast variable decelerations have an abrupt onset. Early deceleration is coincident in timi...
