The St George's Fetal Monitoring Group has announced new dates for its 'Beyond the CTG: Advanced Fetal Monitoring Workshop', which is returning in November to support maternity professionals in reducing intrapartum risk.
Led by Austin Ugwumadu, renowned obstetrician and international educator, this two-day in-person course equips midwives, consultants, and clinical educators with the physiological insight, frameworks, and practical tools required for safer intrapartum care.
The course will take place 8-9 November 2025 at St George's University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, London.
Austin Ugwumadu describes the course as allowing professionals to "sharpen their judgement, see a much fuller picture, and strengthen communication with women and families at critical moments. It's about moving beyond the CTG to deliver safer, more response care".
Course attendees gain:
- Clearer understanding of fetal, maternal and myometrial physiology in labour
- Improved clinical judgement in complex intrapartum situations
- Tools to interpret national guidance confidently and avoid unnecessary interventions
- Teaching from an experienced multidisciplinary faculty of midwives, perinatal pathologists, and obstetricians
