After pregnancy, women should undergo a series of relevant examinations to ensure that the baby can grow up healthily. During the examination, in addition to B-ultrasound, fetal heart rate monitoring will also be performed to check if the baby is healthy. Heartbeat is a manifestation of the breath of life, and if the fetal heart stops beating, the baby will lose their life. So, how is fetal heart monitoring considered normal?
If the fetal heart rate monitoring is normal, the fetal heart rate monitoring score should be between 8-10 points, otherwise it will be disqualified. In general, the fetal heart rate of a baby also increases during fetal movement, and the normal fetal heart rate of a baby is about 110-160 beats per minute. If the fetal heart rate does not increase during fetal movement, it is necessary to consider whether the fetus is experiencing hypoxia.
When doing fetal heart rate monitoring, two curves will appear on the monitoring chart, one is to record the changes in the baby's fetal heart rate, and the other curve is to record the female's uterine contractions. The baseline heart rate curve will present a straight waveform, and when the baby's heart rate increases during fetal movement, an upward and protruding curve will appear.
The main purpose of doing fetal heart rate monitoring is to detect whether the baby's heartbeat is normal and to prevent the baby from experiencing hypoxia. If the fetal heart rate monitoring is not qualified, oxygen therapy can be used to effectively improve it, and then retesting can be carried out. If the situation is serious, corresponding effective measures should be taken in a timely manner.
