Fetal monitoring is a challenging area that requires skill and experience to practise well. This volume explores the subject matter in a detailed but straightforward manner, thus becoming an invaluable resource for health practitioners as well as midwifery and medical students.

Illustrations and case histories make content applicable to practice

Clear and friendly writing demystifies a potentially challenging subject area

Covers the basics of interpretation, common pitfalls associated with equipment usage, and clinical trial data in context
