Yes it does. Thank you. Our instructor/textbook indicates monitoring for 10 minutes with late decels after each CTX. Didn't really make since to me if we are talking about the infant loosing their reserve it would make since to further evaluate with even one late decel.

In any case, thank you again for responding.
