Default Admission CTG's

Okay, just out of sheer curiousity and of course I'm nosey!! What is the criteria at your Trust for admission CTG's (monitoring), is this done on every woman who enters the labour ward ? in labour. Or is it only carried out when they are high risk? rupture of membranes (ROM) or Premature ROM? etc...

At my Trust we dont do admission CTG's only for the above, and then its obviously with maternal consent, and a basic 20/30 min trace (dependent on findings of course)

Oh and if you do them to every woman, have any of you ever asked why this is? I'd love to know the responses!!!!
