OB & Peds Content Flashcards
Amplitude range is undetectable
absent baseline variability
Amplitude range is visually undetectable < or = 5bpm
minimal baseline variability
Amplitude peak to trough 6-25bpm
moderate baseline variability
amplitude range >25bpm
marked baseline variability
the peak of the acceleration is > or = to 15bpm over the baseline FHR for > or = 15seconds and <2minutes; before 32wks gestation 10:10
Accelerations
normal FHR
110-160
the autonomic nervous system has what effect on the FHR
increases FHR
the parasympathetic nervous system has what effect on the FHR
decreases FHR
lowest point of deceleratoin
nadir
are early decelerations good or not?
good: mirror contraction
can be a sign of fetal intolerance to labor
late decelerations
nuchal cord is tanlgled (grabbed)
variable decelerations
intervention for variable decelerations:
- change position
- throw mask on mom 8-15mL
- more fluid (IV)
time frame of contraction beginning to end
duration
no numeric value, determine by palpate, subjective (strong=forehead, moderate=chin, mild=nose)
intensity
beginning of one contraction to next contraction
frequency
Output for peds:
1ml/kg/hr
• Oxygen Delivery (at childrens all air is humidified)
o Nasal cannula – 1/16L to 3L is typical
o Venturi Mask – 24-55% FiO2
o Simple face Mask – 35-60% Fi02 (6-10L/min)
o Partial rebreather – 70-90% Fi02 (6-15)
o Non-rebreather – 60-100% Fi02 (6-15L/min)
o Blow-by 02
Croup
given at bedtime to give a more steady glucose level (longterm)
