EFM Case Study #11, FHR Decelerations: Part 2-Physiology & Science
Tracking # 20-934166
Course overview
Fetal heart rate (FHR) decelerations may expose providers/hospitals to malpractice risk. When decelerations become severe, failure to identify and appropriately intervene is a common malpractice allegation. Understanding the effects of deceleration depth, duration, and/or frequency on fetal acid-base balance is required if EFM is to be administered safely. Part 2 of this 3-part series discusses the science and physiology of FHR deceleration depth, duration, and frequency.
