Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: All consecutive women labouring at = 37 weeks to 41 weeks with a singleton gestation who are admitted in labour ward at department of obstetrics and gynecology, kasturba hospital , with suspicious or pathological CTG pattern (according to FIGO ) atleast 2 hours prior to delivery.

Exclusion criteria

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
We intend to study the following parameters of cardiotocography on the study group that is Baseline FHR, Beat to beat variability,Total acceleration area,Total deceleration area,Minimum acceleration depth, Minimum deceleration depth, Maximum deceleration depth, Maximum acceleration depth and correlate to incidence of fetal acidemia. To derive the prediction model using various CTG characteristics to detect fetal acidemia at birth. Timepoint: cross sectional study

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Neonatal outcomes & morbidity like APGAR- 1’, 5’scores, NICU stays in view of morbidities like neonatal encephalopathy, neonatal sepsis, necrotizing enterocolitis.Timepoint: 0, 1 day , 3 days, 7 days
