Pregnant women will undergo regular check ups during pregnancy, and fetal heart rate monitoring is one of them. Fetal heart monitoring is like an electrocardiogram. The monitoring chart can show whether the fetus is moving or accelerating, in order to better understand the development of the fetus in the uterus. So, what are the consequences of unqualified tire monitoring?
Unqualified fetal heart monitoring can result in the following consequences:
1. If the fetal heart rate is greater than 160 or less than 100 and lasts for more than five minutes, it is necessary to contact medical personnel as soon as possible. If necessary, a cesarean section should be performed as soon as possible to remove the fetus to avoid fetal hypoxia and asphyxia.
2. If there are occasional fluctuations in fetal heart rate that affect the score, there is no need to worry too much. At this time, the doctor usually performs another fetal heart rate monitoring one hour later.
In most cases, inadequate fetal heart monitoring indicates hypoxia in the uterus. The more severe the fetal heart rate abnormality, the more severe the fetal hypoxia, but not all fetal heart rate abnormalities are caused by hypoxia. Therefore, it is recommended that pregnant women pay attention to the following points when doing fetal heart rate monitoring:
1. Select the active time period of the fetus for fetal heart rate monitoring.
2. Before making it, be sure to eat a full meal, you can have some sweets, and it's also best to walk a little before making it.
3. When doing fetal heart rate monitoring, you can gently pat the belly or shake it left and right. When the fetus moves, you can give a response by tapping slightly in the moving area, or you can play some music to listen to.
4. If you haven't experienced it for the first time, you can consider taking oxygen therapy or resting to redo it. If you haven't experienced it twice, the doctor suggests that pregnant women who are hospitalized should not worry too much. If you feel that the fetal movement is normal on a regular basis, you can consider doing it again at another time. However, if the doctor strongly requests hospitalization, it is still advisable to listen to the doctor, as intrauterine hypoxia can be quite dangerous.
