Comparison of Computerized Cardiotocography Parameters between Male and Female Fetuses [PDF]
Fetal sex has been identified as an important factor influencing pregnancy outcomes, but its impact on fetal heart rate (FHR) variability in uncomplicated pregnancies is still unclear. The objective of the study was to assess short-term variability (STV)

Perinatal and Neonatal Outcomes Using Cardiotocography Versus STAN and Cardiotocography: a Systematic Review. [PDF]
Objective:ST waveform analysis (STAN) was introduced to improve the interpretation of cardiotocography (CTG) resulting in reduction of unnecessary interventions and metabolic acidosis. A systematic review was conducted with the aim to evaluate the effect of STAN method compared with isolated CTG on perinatal and neonatal outcomes. Materials and methods:

Computerized Analysis of Antepartum Cardiotocography: A Review
. Cardiotocography measures the human fetal heart rate and uterine activity using ultrasound. While it has been a mainstay in antepartum care since the 1960s, cardiotocograms consist of complex signals that have proven difficult for clinicians to ...

Modern principles of cardiotocography in childbirth
Cardiotocography (CTG) is the main method of assessment of the fetus, which due to its informativeness and stability of the information obtained has almost completely replaced the phonoand electrocardiography of the fetus from the clinical practice.
