Cardiotocography (CTG)

Cardiotocography (CTG) is a medical procedure used during pregnancy to monitor the baby's heart rate and the mother's uterine contractions. By attaching sensors to the mother's abdomen, healthcare providers can assess how well the baby is doing and detect signs of distress. The procedure provides continuous recordings—called tracings—that help ensure the baby's health, especially during labor. CTG is a valuable tool for making informed decisions to support both mother and baby, aiming for a safe and healthy delivery.
