What are the functions of fetal heart monitoring?

Fetal heart rate monitoring is the abbreviation of fetal heart rate, fetal heart rate and uterine contraction pressure waveform recorded by electronic monitor for clinical analysis of the figure, is the correct evaluation of fetal intrauterine conditions of the primary examination method.

Fetal heart rate monitoring plays an important role in early detection of fetal heart rate abnormalities, timely treatment and reduction of perinatal mortality, and plays a primary role in the detection of fetal heart rate abnormalities.

How many weeks of pregnancy start fetal heart care?

Normal pregnancy is monitored weekly from 34 weeks of gestation, and high-risk mothers are monitored from 28 to 30 weeks of gestation.

What does fetal heart monitoring chart look like?

There are two curves on the Fetal Heart Rate (FHR) monitor, one recording the changes in the FHR, the other recording the contractions. Under normal conditions, the FHR is maintained at 120-160 beats per minute. The fetus is moving faster (at least 15 beats per minute) than at rest, and lasts at least 15 seconds. This normal condition is observed. This is the result of every fetal mother's expectation.

If the fetal heart rate does not accelerate during fetal activity, there may be no fetal movement at all during fetal heart rate monitoring, indicating that fetal conditions may be abnormal (such as hypoxia or placental doubts, etc.), which is called "unresponsive" and the pregnant mother needs to have another fetal heart rate monitoring after an hour.

Usually, it is recommended that pregnant mothers start routine fetal heart monitoring at 36 weeks of gestation, once a week, usually for 20 minutes. If there are pregnancy-induced hypertension, diabetes mellitus with pregnancy, fetal death in utero and other adverse pregnancy and childbirth history, oligohydramnios and other conditions, it is recommended that pregnant mothers do fetal heart rate monitoring from 32 weeks of gestation.

What are the requirements for fetal heart care monitoring?

MeilunFetal heart monitoring is influenced by factors such as simple mother's mood and rest. Therefore, when pregnant mothers are doing fetal heart monitoring, the EEG machine needs to pay attention to the following four points:

1. Stick to a stable mood, pregnant mothers if mood swings, great joy or sadness, will have an impact on the baby, resulting in inaccurate fetal heart rate monitoring results. Electroencephalograph

2. Meilundon't eat too much hunger or food, such as spicy food, strong tea and coffee.  Electroencephalograph

3.Meilun stick to excellent rest and prevent overwork.

4. careful medication, some drugs will affect the growth and development of fetal babies.
