They have generalized arterial vasospasm leading to increased SVR and high Cardiac afterload
Increased pulmonary capillary pressure

Uterine rupture
Early decelerations correlate to
Fetal head compression
can be normal fetal tracing
Late decelerations correlate to
uteroplacental insufficiency
Variable decelerations correlate to
cord compressin
oligohydramnios
cord prolapse
If mom is Anti-Rh ab titer Negative administer
anti-D immune globulin to the women
