简要总结
In women judged to require continuous electronic fetal heart rate monitoring (EFM) during their labour, does the addition of decision support software to aid the interpretation of the intrapartum cardiotocogram (CTG) reduce the number of 'poor neonatal outcomes'? This study is not introducing a new form of labour monitoring; it is evaluating the addition of decision-support to CTGs displayed on the Guardian™ system. Specifically comparing: "No decision-support" - CTGs with no additional interpretation (UK standard care), compared with: "Decision-support" - CTGs with the decision support software running that will alert clinicians to the presence of abnormalities in the CTG in real time. How the labour is managed is entirely up to the recruiting unit and the woman; however the allocation of decision-support or no decision-support is determined randomly by the Guardian™ system.

结局指标
主要结局
Admissions to higher level of care
时间窗: within 48 hours and for longer than 48 hours
A composite of 'poor perinatal outcome' to include (a) all deaths (intrapartum stillbirths plus neonatal deaths i.e. deaths up to 28 days after birth) except deaths due to congenital anomalies, (b) significant morbidity: neonatal encephalopathy (moderate and severe); (c) admissions to the neonatal unit within 48 hours of birth for ≥ 48 hrs with evidence of feeding difficulties, respiratory illness or encephalopathy.
