how to use pinard to timing fetal heart rate?
make sure you know which side to put on the patients and which at your ear.
the flat side is at your ear while the 'big hole' side is on the patients
(sorry i dont know the exact name of parts of pinard stethoscope)
put it at anterior shoulder of the fetal
put your ear on the pinard
you have to count the fetal heart rate
count how many heart rate in 6 seconds or 10 seconds
then multiply it to make it 1 minutes
example :
if you count for 6 seconds
you hear 14 beats
so 14 beats x 10 = 140 beats per minutes
so, can someone help me to post tutorial on how to locate anterior shoulder of the fetus in different presentation / lie?
