Description of CME Course

Attainment and ongoing maintenance of electronic fetal monitoring (EFM) skills is a requirement of all perinatal practitioners who actively participate in the care of pregnant patients. Lack of proper skills or failure to maintain skill in the interpretation and management of EFM data is a major factor in obstetric medical malpractice claims nationwide. All professional organizations (ACOG, AWHONN, AAP, ACNM) and patient safety advocate organizations (IOM, IHI, NQF) support multidisciplinary EFM education and training. This education series is divided into many short modules. This 13th module is a case study to assist with bringing all that was learned in previous modules together. Interactive practice sessions are incorporated to improve critical thinking and skill attainment.
