title: Fetal heart rate changes during diabetic ketosis.
abstract: A case of diabetic ketosis during pregnancy is presented in which the fetal heart rate tracing demonstrated tachycardia complicated by late and severe variable decelerations. Intravenous administration of insulin resulted in prompt abolition of the deceleration patterns. The implications of these findings are discussed.
