Consider the following 1. Reactive NST 2.Absence of deceleration 3.Sinusoidal pattern Which of the above findings in an antepartum CTG indicate fetal well being :
High-Yield Explanation
Reactive NST, i.e. acceleration with fetal movements indicates a healthy fetus.
“Absence of deceleration in the NST is reassuring. Absence of accelerations in the NST may be a sign of fetal compromise.”
Fernando Arias 3/e, p 19
“Sinusoidal pattern is observed with serous fetal anemia, whether from D iso immunization, ruptured vasa previa, fetomaternal haemorrhage or twin to twin transfusion.”
Wiiliams 23/e, p 420
