Fetal surveillance

A number of resources are available to help midwives maintain their skills in fetal monitoring

Electronic Fetal Monitoring

The eLfH eFM package is freely available to all midwives working in the NHS, as well as student midwives in training through the university.

For RCM midwives who are working outside of the NHS, there is a 70% discount to access the modules – this means that it is available for £30 for members.

RCM/RCOG consensus statement on Electronic Fetal Monitoring (EFM)

Electronic Fetal Monitoring (EFM) is part of the toolkit used by midwives and obstetricians working together during a woman’s pregnancy and labour to monitor the fetal heart rate and check for signs of compromise. For more information, download the RCM/RCOG joint position statement.
