Among the multiple examinations that need to be performed during pregnancy, fetal heart rate monitoring is an important prenatal examination. However, some pregnant women have given birth to their first child, so there is not much understanding of this examination. But if slow fetal heart rate is detected as an abnormal condition, then how much is considered slow fetal heart rate in early pregnancy?
1. The early detection of fetal heart rate in women is mainly based on primitive cardiovascular pulsation, and the normal fetal heart rate at this time should be between 110-160 beats per minute. If the number of beats per minute detected is less than 110, it should be considered as slow fetal heart rate. However, due to individual differences among pregnant women, and slow fetal heart rate may also be a normal physiological condition, it is necessary to combine other prenatal examination indicators to determine whether there is pathological slow fetal heart rate.
2. Pathological fetal bradycardia often suggests that there may be abnormalities in fetal heart development, such as atrial septal defect, ventricular septal defect, etc. This is a congenital heart disease problem. Therefore, pregnant women who are diagnosed with this condition must actively undergo fetal heart monitoring to confirm the specific cause of fetal bradycardia, and then receive relevant treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
3. In addition, occasional slow fetal heart rate during prenatal check ups does not necessarily indicate pathological conditions. Therefore, as a pregnant woman, do not be nervous, follow the guidance and advice given by doctors, take good care of pregnancy, and actively undergo relevant examinations and timely prenatal check ups according to medical advice.
