Zusammenfassung
Die Inzidenz fetaler Arrhythmien wird mit 1–2 % angegeben, doch ist anzunehmen, dass bis zu 10 % der Feten zeitweise Arrhythmien aufweisen. Passagere Arrhythmien, fast immer Extrasystolen, werden durch die häufige Anwendung von Auskultationen, Ultraschall und Kardiotokographie in immer mehr Schwangerschaften beobachtet. Grundsätzlich werden die Arrhythmien in Extrasystolen, Bradyarrhythmien und Tachyarrhythmien eingeteilt, wobei die Grenzen der Normofrequenz bei 100 bzw. 180 Schlägen/min liegen.
