Abstract:
By means of 80 cases of connatal infections a fetal tachycardia will be observed without distinct relation to a fetal distress in 51.3% (in comparing to a fetal tachycardia in 19.5% without infection). Concluding there is to state, that a typical pattern is an increase of fetal heart frequency without decelerations during labour. This shall be the reason, to diagnose an obstetrical and neonatological infection.
