Cardiotocography Exam Interpretation Course
Master the clinical skill of cardiotocography interpretation and make confident, evidence-based decisions during fetal monitoring. This course takes you from the physiological foundations of fetal heart rate regulation through systematic CTG classification, management protocols, and medicolegal accountability. Whether you are a midwife, obstetrician, or labour and delivery nurse, this training sharpens the competency that directly protects maternal and fetal outcomes.

What will I learn?
You will build a thorough understanding of fetal cardiovascular physiology and how it produces the patterns you see on every CTG trace. You will learn to measure and classify baseline fetal heart rate, variability, accelerations, and all deceleration types using internationally recognised frameworks. The course covers uterine activity assessment, the effects of medications and clinical risk factors on trace interpretation, and how to apply adjunct tests when findings are equivocal. You will also develop structured communication and escalation skills essential for safe team-based practice. Special scenarios including preterm labour, VBAC, multiple pregnancies, and antepartum surveillance are addressed in dedicated sections.
