Across 2. Category which is indicative of abnormal acid-base balance. 5. This type of variability may be associated with fetal sleep cycles 7. Early labor abbrev. 9. Abbrev. for a type of fetal surveillance based on the premise that a well-oxygenated fetus will accelerate his heart rate in response to movement. 10. ype of deceleration which may be associated with cord prolapse 13. n order to assess intensity or a contraction with external monitoring, you must do this. 14. Decelerations which occur with 50% or more of the contractions in a twenty minute period. 17. Two accelerations of the FHR of 10 bpm above baseline, observed during an NST for a 29 week fetus. 19. Baseline FHR less than 110 bpm. 21. External transducer which measures the frequecy and duration of uterine contractions. 23. Reassuring characteristic of FHR which does not need to be present for a tracing to be considered Category 1. 26. Abbrev. electronic fetal monitoring 29. Type of variability in which an amplitude change form the baseline of 25 beats or more is noted. 30. _____ compression is associated with variable decelerations. 31. he category for a tracing in which there are periodic variable decelerations, moderate variability, and a baseline rate of 115. 34. A pattern which closely resembles a sinusoidal pattern, but is not associated with a poor outcome. 37. Accelerations or decelerations not associated with contractions 38. Detect changes in fetal oxgen and carbon dioxide levels and provide feedback to the fetal autonomic nervous system. 40. Term to describe FHR baseline when there are no segments of 2 minutes or more within a ten minute timespan in which the FHR is consistent. 41. Measurement of amniotic fluid abbrev. 42. Abbrev. for advanced practice nurse who cares for healthy women during pregnancy and birth. 43. Roughness or smoothness of the fetal tracing which is viewed over 10 minutes, excluding acceleration and decelerations 44. Amplitude of change from baseline is undetectable.

Down 1. A fetus at 39 weeks gestation must accelerate her HR at least ___ bpm above baseline, at least twice in 20 min. in order for the NST to be considered reactive. 3. Type of deceleration associated with head compression 4. Decelerations associated with utero-placental insufficiency 6. MD or DO who specializes in the management of high risk pregnancy. 8. A uterine contraction wich lasts 2 or more minutes. 11. The NST for a patient at 32 weeks gestation with FHR 135, minimal to moderate variability, no episodic or periodic changes, and occasional contractions. 12. Type of decelerations you may see in a patient with a low AFI 15. Baseline FHR which may be associated with maternal infection, fever, or certain medications. 16. Stretch receptors which detect fetal BP changes. 18. ________ compression can occur when a mother lays flat on her back in the last half of pregnancy. 20. Decelerations which occur with less than half of the contractions in a twenty minute time span. 22. Branch of the ANS, mostly responsible for FHR variability 24. This type of stimulation may be used to illicit accelerations during a non-reactive NST. 25. A hand held device used to auscultate fetal heart rate. 27. Abbrev. fetal heart rate 28. Accelerations or decelerations associated with contractions 32. Smooth, undulating pattern which resembles a sine wave. Associated with grave fetal conditions. 33. Approximate, mean fetal heart rate rounded to the nearest 5 bpm. Determined over a ten minute window, exclusive of accles, decels, or marked variability. 35. Variability associated with Category 1 tracing. 36. Inaccurate or inadequate recording of the fetal heart rate due to misplacement 39. This category of tracing includes moderate variability, a baseline rate of 110-160, the absence of late and variable decels. Accels and early decels may or may not be present.
