CTG

Question 1

Normal baseline variability

Answer 1

6-25 bpm at the baseline fetal heart rate

Question 2

Early deceleration

Answer 2

Uniform repetitive decrease of FHR with slow onset early in the fontraction and slow return to baseline by end of contraction

Question 3

Variable deceleration

Answer 3

Repetitive/intermittent decreasing of FHR with rapid onset and recovery, most commonly occur simultaneously with contractions but relationship can be variable

Question 4

Prolonged deceleration and bradycardia

Answer 4

Fall in baseline FHR for more than 90 second and up to 5 minutes. Bradycardia is more than 5 minutes

Question 5

Late deceleration

Answer 5

Uniform, repetitive decreasing of FHR with usually slow onset mid to end of contraction and nadir more than 20 seconds after peak of contraction, ending after contraction:

Question 6

Reactive CTG

Answer 6

Normal baseline FHR
Good variability
2 accelerations in 20 mins
No deceleration
