Introduction: The cardiotocography (CTG) is more commonly knows aselectronic fetal monitoring (EFM). A cardiotocography measures the fetal heart and the frequencyof uterine contractions. Using two separate disc shaped transducers. Objectives: The objectiveof this study is to co-relate the intrapartum cardiotocography monitoring with fetomaternaloutcome.
