Antenatal Computerised Fetal Heart Monitoring

Friday 27 May 2022

Virtual event



Course overview

Registration for on demand access to lectures is now available.

Fetal Heart rate assessment is routinely used in the antenatal assessment of pregnant women. Visual analysis of antenatal CTG is common practice. Both the Cochrane review and Saving Babies Lives Care Bundle (Version 2) recommend the use of computerised CTG in preference to the visual analysis of the CTG.

Computerised analysis of the fetal heart rate tracing has several advantages. A number of  publications have shown that computerised analysis is highly repeatable, objective and reduces the monitoring time.

The objective of this course is to provide training for the performance, interpretation and application of computerised antenatal cardiotocography (cCTG) for various indications in clinical practice. Delegates have an opportunity to learn from world leaders in the field and this course provides an essential and comprehensive knowledge of the use of cCTGs.

The training of computerised antenatal CTG is expected to directly reduce perinatal mortality. In addition, its use is expected to reduce monitoring duration. Usage of an objective method of analysis of FHR tracing is likely to reduce litigation costs for healthcare trusts. Computerised analysis is likely to reduce inappropriate intervention by staff not adequately trained in visual analysis of CTG

On-demand accessible learning

Our state-of-the-art virtual events platform allows you to access all lecture based content on-demand, subject to speaker permissions. The recordings will be available shortly after the event and will remain accessible for three months post-event.
