Following earlier work by Hon (1958),
continuous electronic fetal monitoring
(EFM) was introduced into obstetrical
practice in the late 1960s.
![Page 3: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon periodic auscultation with a fetoscope.
![Page 4: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Instead, the continuous graph-paper portrayal of the fetal heart rate was potentially diagnostic in assessing pathophysiological events affecting the fetus
![Page 5: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Indeed, there were great expectations that:
• Electronic fetal heart rate monitoring provided accurate information• The information was of value in diagnosing fetal distress • It would be possible to intervene to prevent fetal death or morbidity • Continuous electronic fetal heart rate monitoring was superior to intermittent methods.
![Page 6: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
When first introduced, electronic fetal heart rate monitoring was used primarily in complicated pregnancies, but gradually became used in most pregnancies.

Indeed, fetal monitoring has become the most prevalent obstetrical procedure in the United State

ELECTRONIC FETAL MONITORING :
Internal Electronic Monitoring
External (Indirect) Electronic Monitoring
![Page 9: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Internal Electronic Monitoring :
The fetal heart rate may be measured by attaching a bipolar spiral electrode directly to the fetus
![Page 10: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The wire electrode penetrates the fetal scalp, and the second pole is a metal wing on the electrode. Vaginal body fluids create a saline electrical bridge that completes the circuit and permits measurement of the voltage .differences between the two poles
![Page 11: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The two wires of the bipolar electrode are attached to a reference electrode on the maternal thigh to eliminate electrical interference.
![Page 12: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The electrical fetal cardiac signal—P wave, QRS complex, and T wave—is amplified and fed into a cardiotachometer for heart rate calculation. The peak R-wave voltage is the portion of the fetal electrocardiogram most reliably detected.

The phenomenon of continuous R-to-R wave fetal heart rate computation is known as beat-to-beat variability
![Page 17: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The physiological event being counted, however, is not a mechanical event corresponding to a heartbeat but rather an electrical event.
![Page 18: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
External (Indirect) Electronic Monitoring :
External monitoring, however, does not provide the precision of fetal heart rate measurement or the quantifi- cation of uterine pressure afforded by internal monitoring.
![Page 19: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The fetal heart rate is detected through the maternal abdominal wall using the ultrasound Doppler principleA coupling gel must be applied because air conducts ultrasound poorly. The device is held in position by a belt. Care should be taken that maternal arterial pulsations are not confused with fetal cardiac motion
![Page 20: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Baseline Fetal Heart Activity :heart activity refers to the modal characteristics that prevail apart from periodic accelerations or decelerations associated with uterine contractions.
![Page 25: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Descriptive characteristics of baseline fetal heart activity include:
ratebeat-to-beat variabilityfetal arrhythmiadistinct patterns such as sinusoidal or saltatory fetal heart rates.
![Page 26: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
RateWith increasing fetal maturation, the
heart rate decreases. This continues postnatally such that the average rate is 90 beats/min by age 8
![Page 27: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
. The baseline fetal heart rate decreased an average of 24 beats/min between 16 weeks and term, or approximately 1 beat/min per week.
![Page 28: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
It is postulated that this normal gradual slowing of the fetal heart rate corresponds to maturation of parasympathetic (vagal) heart control
![Page 29: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
The baseline fetal heart rate is the approximate mean rate rounded to increments of 5 beats/min during a 10-minute tracing segment.
![Page 30: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
In any 10-minute window, the minimum interpretable baseline duration must be at least 2 minutes
![Page 31: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
If the baseline fetal heart rate is less than 110 beats/min, it is termed bradycardia. If the baseline rate is greater than 160
beats/min, it is termed tachycardia.
![Page 32: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The average fetal heart rate is considered the result of tonic balance between accelerator and decelerator in- fluences on pacemaker cells.
In this concept, the sympathetic system is the accelerator influence, and the parasympathetic system is the decelerator factor mediated via vagal slowing of heart rate
![Page 33: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
arterial chemoreceptors such that both hypoxia and hypercapnia can modulate rate.
More severe and prolonged hypoxia, with a rising blood lactate level and severe metabolic acidemia, induces a prolonged fall in heart rate
![Page 34: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
BradycardiaThe lower normal limit is disputed
internationally, with some investigators recommending 110 beats/min
![Page 35: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Pragmatically, a rate between 100 and 119 beats/min, in the absence of other changes, usually is not considered to represent fetal compromise.
![Page 36: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Such low but potentially normal baseline heart rates also have been attributed to head compression from occiput posterior or transverse positions, particularly during second-stage labor
![Page 37: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
bradycardia within the range of 80 to 120 beats/min with good variability is reassuring.
Interpretation of rates less than 80 beats/min is problematic, and such rates generally are considered nonreassuring.
![Page 38: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Some causes of fetal bradycardia include : congenital heart block and serious
fetal compromise. Maternal hypothermia under general
anesthesia. severe pyelonephritis

TachycardiaFetal tachycardia is defined as a baseline
heart rate in excess of 160 beats/min
![Page 40: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
The most common explanation for fetal tachycardia : maternal fever from
chorioamnionitis, or from any source can increase
![Page 41: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Other causes of fetal tachycardia include : fetal compromise cardiac arrhythmias maternal administration of
parasympathetic (atropine) sympathomimetic (terbutaline) drugs.
![Page 42: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Beat-to-Beat Variability :Baseline variability is an important
index of cardiovascular function and appears to be regulated largely by the autonomic nervous system
![Page 43: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Short-term variability reflects the instantaneous change in fetal heart rate from one beat—or R wave—to the next. This variability is a measure of the time interval between cardiac systoles
![Page 44: Dr. Nooshin Eshraghi - iums.ac.irvct.iums.ac.ir/uploads/nst_willi_salamat_janin.pdf · No longer were intrapartum fetal surveillance and the suspicion of fetal distress based upon](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041205/5d5731ae88c9931c088b61f3/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
. Short-term variability can most reliably be determined to be normally present only when electrocardiac cycles are measured directly with a scalp electrode

Longterm variability is used to describe the oscillatory changes that occur during the course of 1 minute and result in the waviness of the baseline .The normal frequency of such waves is three to five cycles per minute

. Up to 30 weeks, baseline characteristics were similar during both fetal rest and activity. After associated with diminished baseline variability and conversely, variability was increased during fetal activity.

1. Stable baseline heart rate of 120 to 160 beats/min with regular oscillations
2. Amplitude of 5 to 15 beats/min (rarely greater) 3. Long-term variability frequency of 2 to 5 cycles per
minute. 4. Fixed or flat short-term variability 5. Oscillation of the sinusoidal waveform above or
below a baseline 6. Absence of accelerations
