The NCC EFM Tracing Game is part of the free online EFM toolkit at NCC-EFM.org. This web game uses NICHD terminology to identify tracing elements and categorize EFM tracings. Health care professionals play the game to hone and test their EFM knowledge and skills.
Have you tested your EFM skills lately? - When considering the effectiveness of Electronic Fetal Monitoring, it comes down to the experience and knowledge of the person identifying the tracings. It takes that professional’s understanding of what the continuous tracings show to properly assess the fetal condition.
The NCC EFM Tracing Game is just one of the valuable tools in this digital EFM toolkit. Professionals using Electronic Fetal Monitoring in their practice should also take advantage of:
• The EFM Resources page with linked papers and articles including the NCC monograph “Fetal Assessment and Safe Labor Management” authored by Kathleen Rice Simpson, PhD, RNC-OB, CNS-BC, FAAN.
• The Value of EFM Certification (One Team – One Language), showcases the national PSA campaign “Your Baby Communicates” along with peer-to-peer video discussions on the value of EFM Board Certification.
The EFM toolkit also offers EFM CE opportunities and C-EFM(R) certification information.
