Computerized Analysis of Antepartum Cardiotocography: A Review

open access: yesMaternal-Fetal Medicine, 2022
. 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 ...

A deep feature fusion network for fetal state assessment

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
CTG (cardiotocography) has consistently been used to diagnose fetal hypoxia. It is susceptible to identifying the average fetal acid-base balance but lacks specificity in recognizing prenatal acidosis and neurological impairment.

Detection of Suspicious Cardiotocographic Recordings by Means of a Machine Learning Classifier

open access: yesBioengineering, 2023
Cardiotocography (CTG) is one of the fundamental prenatal diagnostic methods for both antepartum and intrapartum fetal surveillance. Although it has allowed a significant reduction in intrapartum and neonatal mortality and morbidity, its diagnostic ...

Prediction of Fetal Blood Pressure during Labour with Deep Learning Techniques

open access: yesBioengineering, 2023
Our objective is to develop a model for the prediction of minimum fetal blood pressure (FBP) during fetal heart rate (FHR) decelerations. Experimental data from umbilical occlusions in near-term fetal sheep (2698 occlusions from 57 near-term lambs) were ...

A Fetal Well-Being Diagnostic Method Based on Cardiotocographic Morphological Pattern Utilizing Autoencoder and Recursive Feature Elimination

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2023
Cardiotocography (CTG), which measures the fetal heart rate (FHR) and maternal uterine contractions (UC) simultaneously, is used for monitoring fetal well-being during delivery or antenatally at the third trimester.
