Ectopic Atrial Beats May Cause a ZigZag Pattern at Intrapartum Recording of the Fetal Heart Rate Using Fetal Scalp Electrode
In supraventricular fetal arrhythmia, the use of FSE for continuous intrapartum FHR monitoring differently from external ultrasound transducer may capture a highly variable CTG pattern which is caused by the registration of the ectopic atrial beats and not by a rapidly evolving hypoxia.
