Admission cardiotocography vs intermittent auscultation

Rate of caesarean section · Low risk pregnant women. All of the women were in labour.

Admission cardiotocography showed no clear difference in incidence of caesarean section compared with intermittent auscultation (low‐risk women) (moderate certainty).

Admission cardiotocography vs intermittent auscultation

Incidence of continuous electronic fetal monitoring during labour · Low risk pregnant women. All of the women were in labour.

Admission cardiotocography may leads to higher incidence of continuous electronic fetal monitoring during labour compared with intermittent auscultation (low‐risk women) (low certainty).

Admission cardiotocography vs intermittent auscultation

Incidence and severity of hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy (incidence only reported) · Low risk pregnant women. All of the women were in labour.

It is very uncertain whether admission cardiotocography changes incidence and severity of hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy… compared with intermittent auscultation (low‐risk women) (very low certainty).
