case_images: Two hours after the induction, we still observed a reduced variability in fetal heart rate from cardiotocography (amplitude range of 5 beats/minute) with sporadic late decelerations (Figures 1(a) and 1(b)), then we proceeded to amniorrhexis which revealed meconium-stained amniotic fluid.
