Traditional approaches to CTG interpretation often focus on pattern recognition, but without a deep understanding of fetal and maternal physiology, critical insights into fetal wellbeing can be missed.

This two-day, in-person workshop enables clinicians to interpret traces accurately, act decisively, and communicate clearly under pressure.

Led by the experienced team at St George鈥檚 University Hospitals, this course combines scientific evidence, national guideline reviews (including NICE), physiological insights, and real-world case studies to support safer, more confident decision-making on the labour ward.

If you鈥檝e ever felt uncertain during a trace or been surprised by an unexpected outcome despite a reassuring CTG, this course helps you understand why, as well as giving you the framework and tools to respond differently in future.

鈥淭his course has been incredibly hands-on and clinically relevant. The most powerful takeaway for me was understanding how intrapartum risk factors can influence fetal response 鈥 and how to spot these subtle shifts in real time. The practical cases were invaluable, especially learning from others in an open and engaging environment.鈥 鈥 Dr. Mariana Tom茅, Senior Registrar Obstetrician, Clinical Research Fellow, Oxford Labour Monitoring Team
