just got to get a few things out... dh not here and i need to blurt.
no real surprises (i've seen the existing traces etc) but there are factual inaccuracies and no mention of the fact that they knew she was in poor condition and had crashed the paeds before she was born.
atypical deceleration at 1421 (as associated with cord compression) followed by intermittent loss of traces.
1440 'appears likely that that there is variable deceleration'
1452 'the tracing would be cllassified as suspicious'
all else is intermittent auscultation (handheld not trace and handwritten on notes - the student midwife did both - wasn't checked by midwife until 1533 when she realised dd's head was cold and crashed the paeds and senior midwife on duty - between them they essentially dragged her out whilst the student sobbed in the corner)
1536 'nuchal cord x1, shoulders tight ++'
1539 resus and apgars.
essentially he is saying unexplained as there should be a prolonged period of bradycardia to explain her condition at birth.
