Definitions/Classifications
Fetal Heart Rate Baseline: The FHR is rounded to increments of 5 beats per min during a 10 min segment excluding accelerations and decelerations, periods of marked
variability, or baseline segments that differ by more than
25 beats.
In any given 10 min window, the minimum baseline duration must be at least 2 min (not necessarily contiguous).
Otherwise, it is considered indeterminate. In these instances, review of the previous 10 min segments should be
the basis on which to determine the baseline.
The fetal baseline rate is classified as follows:
Normal: 110-160 beats per min
Bradycardia: Less than 110 beats per min
Tachycardia: Over 160 beats per min
