What is STAN Monitoring in Intrapartum Care about?
1. STAN monitoring relies on changes in the fetal ECG detected as ST events from anaerobic metabolism during hypoxia. 2. STAN can reduce the emergency c-section rate but does not significantly reduce it, and may reduce operative vaginal delivery by around 11%. 3. ST events should prompt delivery during the second stage unless imminent; a new event means STAN should be recommenced on a possibly hypoxic fetus.
