I find using telemitry units helpful for women planning vbac birth, where
the hospital policy requires the woman to be continually monitored in
labour, but the telemitry unit allows the woman to be mobile as well. I
guess it could be considered a compromise.

Subject: [ozmidwifery] telemetry ctg machine?
Hi wise midwives,
Do any of you know any compelling reasons or
research on the advantages or disadvantages of using telemetry ctg machines
as apposed to the usual ones? I'm trying to get my head around whether they
are a good or bad thing to have in a practice setting and how having one
avaliable for use changes how midwives care for women in labour.
Thank you, Julie:)
