EFM NCC Exam Study Guide Why use fetal monitoring? - Primary goal is to prevent fetal and maternal morbidity and mortality (prevent injury and death to mother and/ or baby), to prevent bad patient outcomes. What percent of babies who experience a suboptimal event while being fetal monitored, develop cerebral palsy? - 3% of babies with poor tracing develop cerebral palsy What are most sentinel events due to? - Poor communication between providers. Most errors are traceable back to com...
