When you brake to stop your car, you are decelerating. When a ball rolls on the ground and slows down to a stop, the ball is decelerating. Deceleration is the term used for acceleration that causes an object to slow down, while acceleration is motion where the speed of an object changes every second. However, in everyday usage, acceleration is usually taken to mean speeding up. Now that you know what deceleration is, let's look at an example.
In 1997 and 2008, the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development published standardized definitions of FHR patterns, including late and variable decelerations. 4,5 A late deceleration is defined as a gradual (onset to nadir â¥30 seconds) decrease in FHR, with the onset, nadir, and recovery of the deceleration occurring after the beginning, peak, and ending of the contraction, respectively.
