Abstract
Summary: Five patients with fetal complications associated with the use of an intrauterine pressure catheter in labour are described. In four, a fetal vessel was punctured either by the catheter or its introducing sheath. In the remaining patient, cord compression resulted from entanglement with the catheter. These problems may by minimized by a careful catheter introduction technique.Keywords
