Abstract
This case report of a silent cardiotocogram (CTG) registration during general anesthesia in a 33-week-pregnant patient undergoing non-obstetric surgery demonstrates the possibility of misinterpretation whereby typical CTG patterns of fetal reactions to anesthetics can be misinterpreted as fetal hypoxia or even asphyxia.
