A unit in the UK reduced their cs rate astronomically by implementing some strategies: one being continuous up skilling of CTG readout interpretations.  Perhaps the increase in cs is related to misinterpretations and this might help perhaps???

Can anyone tell me what the crux of this program is???

 

 

It seems to be about obstetricians educating midwives on CTG interpretation - I can envisage seeing a lot more caesars for "foetal distress" as a result, with babies apgars of 9 and 10 as the outcome......
