Welcome to the Electronic Monitoring masterclass
As soon as you select the accessibility duration that you prefer and join the course, you will have access to attend all the recorded lectures, and have the privilege to complete the assessment, then the post-course survey and obtain your certificate immediately.
You will find the following lecture titles as soon as you sign up for the scores:
1. Pre-Course Assessment
2. Basics of EFM
3. Oxygen Bathway
4. Shared Mental Model
5. Factors Affecting Fetal Heart Rate Pattern
6. Medicolegal Pitfalls of EFM Tracing
7. End of Course Assessment
Please note that you will need to complete the post course survey to obtain the certificates after completing all the requirements of the course attendance.
Enjoy learning
1- To explain the role of EFM in improving maternal and neonatal outcomes.
2- To list the strengths & shortcomings of EFM.
3- To describe the EFM patterns and nomenclature systems.
4- To review the principles of intermittent auscultation and their standards of care.
5- To discuss EFM management algorithms.
6- To recognize the role of EFM in special clinical scenarios.
7- To identify intrapartum fetal hypoxia on the EFM.
8- To discuss the medicolegal aspects of EFM.
It will
provide a highly professional and up to date evidence-based training on EFM
interpretation based on fetal physiology and pathophysiology of intrapartum
hypoxic injury so as to reduce hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy whilst reducing
unnecessary operative interventions in your labor wards thus minimizing
Obstetrician’s distress and Legal Litigations alike.
Our EFM
Masterclass is tailor designed by experts in the field of EFM
interpretation and recent advances, with an average experience of over 25 years
and we are keen to impart the crucial knowledge and wisdom to align your labor
ward quality and safety KPIs.
The ACOG
Practice Bulletin 106 states that in the annual database, approximately 3.4
million fetuses (85% of approximately 4 million live births) in the United
States were assessed with electronic fetal monitoring (EFM), making it the most
common obstetric procedure . Despite its widespread use, there is controversy
about the efficacy of EFM, interobserver and interobserver variability,
nomenclature, systems for interpretation, and management algorithms.
Moreover,
there is evidence that the use of EFM increases the rate of caesarean
deliveries and operative vaginal deliveries. Although the false positive rate
for prediction of Cerebral Palsy with EFM is high ( excess of 99%) yet errors
with Electronic fetal heart rate monitoring was the most common theme found
in Five years of cerebral palsy claims: A thematic review of NHS
Resolution data (2017).
NHS England (NHS England, 2019, 2016) recommends
effective fetal monitoring in labor as one of the key elements of care designed
to tackle stillbirth and neonatal deaths, and that training in EFM
interpretation should be annual.
Our carefully
constructed EFM Masterclass will thus target the Labor Room Staff
audience to pull all the above loose strings and focus on the latest
methodology for placement of safety nets in your Labor ward EFM monitoring
practices by providing you with evidence-based training on EFM interpretation
based on fetal physiology and pathophysiology of intrapartum hypoxic injury so
as to reduce hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy whilst reducing unnecessary
operative interventions and hence reducing unnecessary and costly litigations.
