Was the Fetal Monitoring Strip Misread? What Parents Should Look For

Описание: Was your baby’s fetal heart tracing misread during labor?
Fetal heart monitoring is one of the most important safety tools in labor and delivery—but when it’s misread, ignored, or misunderstood, the consequences can be devastating.

In this video, Houston birth injury attorney Adam Funk explains:

What a fetal heart tracing (monitoring strip) actually shows

How heart rate and contractions reveal a baby’s oxygen levels

Common reasons fetal monitoring gets misread in hospitals

How understaffing, poor training, and inexperience play a role

What parents can learn to recognize on a tracing

Warning signs of oxygen deprivation, including:

Late decelerations

Minimal or absent variability

Abnormally high or low heart rates

Why misread strips often lead to delayed intervention and brain injury

Many parents are told:

“Everything looked fine.”

But the fetal monitoring strips often tell a very different story.

⚠️ Fetal monitoring is only protective if it’s interpreted correctly.
⚠️ Oxygen loss can be seen on the strip before injury occurs.
⚠️ Misreading these tracings can change a child’s life forever.
