Early decelerations (and accelerations)do not generally need any nursing intervention.Late decelerations suggest that the nurse should change the maternal position (lateral).Variable decelerations also require a maternal position change (side to side).Moderate decelerations are not an accepted category.Prolonged decelerations are late or variable decelerations that last for a prolonged period (longer than 2 minutes)and require intervention.
