PHYSIOLOGY OF FETAL OXYGENATION AND THE MAIN GOALS OF INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING Diogo Ayres-de-Campos, Sabaratnan Arulkumaran for the FIGO intrapartum fetal monitoring consensus panel FIGO 2015
19
FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
Aims of intrapartum fetal monitoring Avoid adverse fetal outcome related to intrapartum hypoxia/acidosis Avoid unnecessary intervention, associated with increased maternal and fetal risks FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
20
FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
Blood gas or lactate analysis in the umbilical cord, or in the newborn circulation during the first minutes of life, is the only objective way of quantifying hypoxia/acidosis occurring just prior to birth FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
21
FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
Cord blood sampling Unnecessary to clamp the cord As soon as possible after birth (< 15 min) Artery and vein Analysis within 30 min FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
22
FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
Metabolic acidosis Arterial pH < 7.00 and BD >12 mmol/l already associated with adverse outcome when pH < 7.05 and BDecf > 10 mmol/l Arterial lactate > 10 mmol/l is an alternative, but reference values may vary according to device FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
23
FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
BDecf believed by some experts to be the best representative of H+ concentration of metabolic origin in the different fetal compartments BDblood calculated by blood gas analysers, slightly higher, can also be used FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
24
FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
1-minute Apgar important to decide newborn resuscitation low association with intrapartum hypoxia/acidosis 5-minute Apgar stronger association with short- and long-term neurological outcome and neonatal death FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
25
FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
Apgar scores Unaffected by minor degrees of hypoxia/acidosis Subject to interobserver disagreement Affected by non-hypoxic causes:: prematurity birth trauma infection meconium aspiration congenital anomalies pre-existing neurological lesions medication administered to the mother early endotracheal aspiration FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
26
FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
Metabolic acidosis and low Apgars vast majority recover quickly and have no short- or long-term complications few cases are of sufficient intensity and duration to cause death or long-term morbidity FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
27
FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) Short-term neurological dysfunction caused by hypoxia/acidosis Metabolic acidosis, low Apgars, early imaging of cerebral edema, changes in muscle tone, sucking difficulties, seizures or coma in first 48 h of life May be accompanied by other system dysfunctions FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
28
FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
Neonatal encephalopathy other non-hypoxic causes need to document metabolic acidosis in umbilical artery or in newborn circulation during the first minutes of life for HIE FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING

Tracing classification Baseline Variability Decelerations Interpretation Clinical Management Normal bpm 5-25 bpm No repetitive* decelerations Suspicious Lacking at least one characteristic of normality, but with no pathological features Pathological < 100 bpm Reduced variability Increased variability, or sinusoidal pattern Repetitive* late or prolonged decelerations > 30 min or > 20 min if variability is reduced. Prolonged deceleration > 5 min No hypoxia/acidosis No intervention necessary Low probability of hypoxia/acidosis Action to correct reversible causes, close monitoring, or adjunct technologies High probability of hypoxia/acidosis Immediate action to correct reversible causes, adjunct technologies or if not possible expedite delivery. In acute situations, immediate delivery must be accomplished. *Decelerations are repetitive when associated with > 80% contractions. Absence of accelerations during labour is of uncertain significance. FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING

The evidence for the benefits of continuous CTG monitoring, as compared to IA, in both low and high risk labours is scientifically inconclusive Alfirevic Z et al.

Intermittent auscultation (IA) Recommended in all labours where there is no access to CTG Where CTG is available, may be used in low-risk cases ≈ ½ panel members believe that CTG should be preferred during the 2nd stage FIGO CONSENSUS GUIDELINES ON INTRAPARTUM FETAL MONITORING
