Nurses play a critical role in the effective use of EFM. They are responsible for correctly placing the monitoring devices, interpreting the data, and communicating with other healthcare providers. Nurses must be proficient in identifying normal and abnormal FHR patterns and understanding the implications of these patterns. Continuous education and training are essential for nurses to stay updated on the latest guidelines and best practices in EFM.
