Fetal Tachycardia (FT) is described as increase in baseline fetal heart rate (FHR) above 160bpm. Mild fetal tachycardia is described as 161-180bpm and severe tachycardia is defined as greater than 180bpm for at least three minutes.

Tachycardia: Fast Heart Rate. Tachycardia refers to a heart rate that's too fast. How that's defined may depend on your age and physical condition. Generally speaking, for adults, a heart rate of more than 100 beats per minute (BPM) is considered too fast.

The normal range for the rate of the baby's heartbeat is between 110 and 160 beats a minute, although this can be higher or lower without meaning that the baby is in difficulty. The variation in the baby's heart rate may be caused by the womb contracting, which affects the blood flow to the placenta (afterbirth).

"Fetal heart rates range between 110 and 160," explains Patricia Crane, MSN, CNM, director of the nurse-midwifery service with the University of Michigan Health Systems.

Some harmless causes of heart palpitations during pregnancy include: the heart reacting to the increase in blood volume. stress and anxiety. reactions to certain food or drinks, especially those that contain caffeine.

There is no consensus about the normal fetal heart rate. Current international guidelines recommend for the normal fetal heart rate (FHR) baseline different ranges of 110 to 150 beats per minute (bpm) or 110 to 160 bpm.

Fetal bradycardia is defined as a sustained fetal heart rate less than 110 beats per minute. Once fetal bradycardia is noted, a quick ultrasound examination of the remainder of the fetus should be performed to confirm normal fetal movement, tone, and amniotic fluid.

Fetal heart rate. ... A normal fetal heart rate (FHR) usually ranges from 120 to 160 beats per minute (bpm) in the in utero period.

Internal fetal monitoring is a way to measure the baby's heart rate and the mother's contractions during labor. Instruments used for the measurements are put into the mother's uterus (womb). One instrument is connected directly to the baby's scalp.

Aim. There is no consensus about the normal fetal heart rate. Current international guidelines recommend for the normal fetal heart rate (FHR) baseline different ranges of 110 to 150 beats per minute (bpm) or 110 to 160 bpm.

The two most important characteristics of fetal heart monitoring are rate and variability. The rate, of course, is referring to the heart rate of the baby.

The most common causes of intrapartum bradycardia include poor uterine perfusion, maternal hypotension (e.g. after epidural placement), umbilical cord prolapse or occlusion, rapid fetal descent, tachysystole, placental abruption, or uterine rupture.

Your baby's heart rate will have slowed down considerably by this week too, from 180 beats per minute to 140 to 150 beats per minute. This can be monitored on a cardiotocography (CTG) machine during your antenatal appointments and is a useful way of checking your baby's wellbeing.

Inappropriate sinus tachycardia (IST) occurs when the heart beats very quickly without a good reason. It is a type of heart rhythm abnormality called an arrhythmia. Tachycardia is the medical term for a fast heart rate.

In the normal pregnancy, fetal heart motion (FHM) was observed with TVS in all the 43 cases (91.3%) where FP/fetus was seen, whereas in comparison with TAS, FHM was seen in 32 cases (69.6%).

Your healthcare provider may do fetal heart monitoring during late pregnancy and labor. The average fetal heart rate is between 110 and 160 beats per minute. It can vary by 5 to 25 beats per minute.

Category I : Normal. The fetal heart rate tracing shows ALL of the following: Baseline FHR 110-160 BPM, moderate FHR variability, accelerations may be present or absent, no late or variable decelerations, may have early decelerations. Strongly predictive of normal acid-base status at the time of observation.
