Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The most common cause of fetal tachycardia is maternal fever. Fetal tachycardia often precedes the maternal fever, and fetal tachycardia confounds the interpretation of electronic fetal monitoring (EFM), increasing the rate of cesarean delivery for non-reassuring fetal status (NRFS). Our hypothesis is that treatment of fetal tachycardia with acetaminophen will significantly lower maternal body temperature and significantly lower baseline fetal heart rate (FHR). The importance is that interpretation of EFM will improve, thus allowing for a decrease in cesarean delivery for NRFS.
