When the fetus has a heartbeat, it means that the fetus is developing normally, which makes pregnant women feel very relieved. In order to ensure the development of the fetus, it is necessary for pregnant women to have regular fetal heart rate monitoring, which can understand whether the fetus is healthy and whether there are any defects or abnormalities. However, what is the qualified score for fetal monitoring?
The fetal monitoring score is 8 points qualified. Once there is an abnormality in the fetal monitoring, it indicates that there is hypoxia in the fetus. If the degree of hypoxia is severe, the abnormality in the fetal heart rate will become more severe. The full score for fetal heart rate monitoring is very high. When fetal movement is abnormal, it is recommended that pregnant women undergo color ultrasound examination to further understand.
Abnormal fetal heart rate, in addition to hypoxia, may also be caused by pregnant women taking certain medications. If a pregnant woman has thyroid disease, her heart rate is very fast, and the fetal heart rate often shows abnormalities. In the case of umbilical cord entanglement, sometimes the entanglement may worsen, so the fetal heart rate will also accelerate. After ruling out these conditions, if the fetal heart rate is still slow, other tests should be performed to see if the fetus has congenital heart disease.
During fetal heart rate monitoring, the fetal heart sounds heard may vary depending on the position of the fetal head. Therefore, it is recommended for pregnant women to walk around before the examination to better monitor the fetal heart rate. Pregnant women can also eat some food to supplement energy, which can also give the fetus vitality.
