| Abstract: | Simple assessment of FHR baseline variability can differentiate second‐degree heart block (SHB) from complete heart block (CHB). In cases of SHB, antepartum NST can be reliably used for fetal surveillance. Intrapartum assessment of FHR variability and accelerations is useful to select cases for safe vaginal delivery. |
