Course Summary
The Physiological CTG Interpretation Master class, a one-day course, offers an unparalleled opportunity to deepen understanding of CTG interpretation and assess real-life obstetric emergencies.
The program encompasses learning the principles of intermittent auscultation (IA) in low-risk patients and the criteria for transitioning to CTG monitoring. Participants will gain insights into the physiology behind CTG patterns and the technology employed in CTG machines.
Furthermore, the course includes applying risk management strategies to mitigate hypoxic injuries during labor through interactive case reviews.
Learning Objectives
This master class aims to enhance participants proficiency in interpreting CTG traces by providing a thorough understanding of fetal physiology and pathophysiology of intrapartum hypoxia, subsequently, reducing hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy with its long-term sequale (cerebral palsy and learning difficulties), without increasing unnecessary operative interventions.
Physiological CTG interpretation represents a paradigm shift from Pattern recognition - based guidelines to one grounded in fetal physiology aiming to understand the underlying pathophysiology behind features observed on the CTG trace to institute a timely and appropriate action when there is evidence of fetal decompensation.
