Baillière's Clinical Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1987
Summary Antepartum cardiotocography remains a valuable adjunct in the management of the high-risk gravida. Twice weekly use of NST coupled with real-time ultrasound assessment of amniotic fluid volume appear reasonable approaches to testing. More controversial is the use of testing in all pregnancies.

Clinical overview of cardiotocography
BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 1993ABSTRACTTwenty years after its widespread introduction, the role of continuous fetal heart rate and contraction monitoring in labour (cardiotocography, CTG) remains uncertain. Although a normal pattern is very reassuring about fetal condition, the predictive value of an abnormal pattern is low. In most studies the use of CTG has been associated with an

British Journal of Midwifery, 2007
The interpretation of cardiotocograph (CTG) evidence is a crucial feature in many legal claims. A case heard in the Court of Session in Edinburgh in June (Lowe v Yorkhill) is of interest to midwives for three reasons in particular. The first concerns the ability to assess intrapartum CTG recordings; the second is the use of documentary evidence that ...

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

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.

[Quantitative cardiotocography].
Akusherstvo i ginekologiia, 2008Cardiotocography (CTG) is an up-to-date practical method for fetal surveillance during pregnancy and labor. More precise reading of the CTG data is possible with the use of some fetal acid-base parameters, taken from the umbilical artery (UA). Unfortunately, invasive procedures like fetal scalp blood sampling and/or cordocentesis are required to obtain

Antenatal Nonstress Cardiotocography
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1987EDITORIAL COMMENT: There are problems with the interpretation of the value of antenatal cardiotocography in current obstetric practice. For example, a recent review by Thacker and Berkelman concluded that although nonstress and contraction stress cardiotocographs are used extensively in the United States of America, ‘neither have been demonstrated to ...
