Attendees will come to understand the underlying physiology behind antenatal surveillance methods, including non-stress testing, biophysical profiling, amniotic fluid assessment, and fetal Doppler velocimetry. Many pregnant families have difficulty understanding the nature of antenatal fetal surveillance, and have even more challenge deciphering the results. This lecture will help practitioners effectively counsel pregnant patients on result interpretation and provide tools to help families make educated decisions based on the antenatal fetal surveillance results.
Learning Objectives:
Objective 1: Describe the pathway of oxygen from the external environment to the fetus in order to identify how this pathway may be disrupted and detected through available fetal surveillance methods.
Objective 2: Interpret the results of a non-stress test and provide counsel to the pregnant family based on those results.
Objective 3: Explain the physiology of amniotic fluid and how to reliably assess it with ultrasound.
