In the Netherlands, antenatal cardiotocography (aCTG) to assess fetal well-being is performed in obstetrician-led care. An innovative initiative was started to evaluate whether aCTG for specific indications-reduced fetal movements, external cephalic version, or postdate pregnancy-is feasible in non-obstetrician-led care settings by independent primary care midwives. Quality assessment is essential when reorganizing and shifting tasks and responsibilities. Therefore, we aimed to assess the inter- and intraobserver agreement for aCTG assessments between and within four professional groups involved in Dutch maternity care regarding the overall classification and assessment of the various components of aCTG.
