Fetal Heart Monitoring ~Reassuring ~vs~ Non-Reassuring Patterns

Patricia Brown, RN NNT2 Task 2B

Senior BSN students enrolled in maternal-child nursing will be involved in this multimedia learning activity to gain expertise in reading fetal heart monitor tracings and recognizing their

significance.

They will be prompted to choose appropriate nursing interventions for these patterns after they are correctly

indentified.

Students are seated in front of a large computer monitor.

(This activity can be performed with one student or a pair of students)

The student(s) get “report” on a laboring patient~

Her history, progress in labor, dilation and station, and supporting assessments and

labs…

….either by reading about the patient,

or getting taped report (preferred!)

…and the first three minute tracing begins…

Quiz time! (multiple choice, fill in, short answer)

Repeat through all three major deceleration patterns…

Evaluate and remediate as indicated….

The get ready for the real deal!
