Cardiotocography and the evolution into computerised cardiotocography in the management of intrauterine growth restriction [PDF]
Timely recognition and appropriate management of high-risk pregnancies, such as intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), are of paramount importance for every obstetrician. After the initial screening of IUGR fetuses through sonographic fetometry and Doppler, the focus is shifted to the appropriate monitoring and timing of delivery. This can, especially

The Relevance of Antenatal Cardiotocography
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1987Summary: In a prospective study of 3,083 patients having antenatal cardiotocography it was shown that ominous fetal heart rate traces were most likely to occur when the test was applied in specific ‘at risk’ situations rather than as a routine screening test, and when the need for monitoring was perceived relatively early in the pregnancy. The majority

Antepartum Cardiotocography — an Audit
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1987Summary: Between 1981 and 1986, 9,840 women were monitored by antepartum nonstressed cardiotocography (CTG). A satisfactory fetal reserve pattern was detected in 91%, a reduced reserve pattern in 8% and a critical reserve pattern in 1%. The incidences of fetal growth retardation, Apgar score < 6 at 1 minute, perinatal mortality and Caesarean section

Cardiotocography and medicolegal issues
Best Practice & Research Clinical Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 2004Obstetric litigation is on the increase. A review of litigation cases reveals that the majority of claims relating to the intrapartum period arise because the cardiotocograph- (CTG) was misinterpreted or because inappropriate action was taken in the presence of fetal heart rate abnormalities.

Cardiotocography for antepartum fetal assessment
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 1999Cardiotocography is a form of fetal assessment which simultaneously records fetal heart rate, fetal movements and uterine contractions to investigate hypoxia.The objective was to assess the effects of antenatal cardiotocography on perinatal morbidity and mortality and maternal morbidity.We searched the Cochrane Pregnancy and Childbirth Group trials ...

Statistical baseline assessment in cardiotocography
2017 39th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC), 2017Cardiotocography (CTG) is the most common non-invasive diagnostic technique to evaluate fetal well-being. It consists in the recording of fetal heart rate (FHR; bpm) and maternal uterine contractions. Among the main parameters characterizing FHR, baseline (BL) is fundamental to determine fetal hypoxia and distress.
