Correct. Tachycardia is certainly not always indicative of fetal distress or hypoxia, but this fetal tracing is very concerning.

Incorrect. Remember, the baseline is the average heart rate rounded to the nearest five bpm. Tachycardia is certainly not always indicative of fetal distress or hypoxia, but this fetal tracing is very concerning. To review baseline heart rate go to, Baseline.

Correct. Minimal variability is usually a normal variant and may be related to sleep cycles, drugs, prematurity, etc. Occassionally it is associated with hypoxia and it is very concerning in this context.

Incorrect. The answer is minimal. Minimal variability is usually a normal variant and may be related to sleep cycles, drugs, prematurity, etc. Occassionally it is associated with hypoxia and it is very concerning in this context.. To review variability go to, Baseline Variability.
