Cardiotocography in Obstetrics: New Solutions for “Routine” Technology

Sensors, 2022
This work is devoted to the problems of one of the most common screening examinations used in medical practice: fetal cardiotocography (CTG). The technology of ultrasonic monitoring of fetal heart rate (HR) variations has been used for more than 70 years.

The quality of intrapartum cardiotocography in preterm labour

Journal of Perinatal Medicine, 2021
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study is to determine the quality of the foetal heart rate (FHR) recording, defined as signal loss, during preterm labour below 28 weeks gestational age (GA) and contribute to the discussion if cardiotocography (CTG) is of value for the extreme preterm foetus.

Prediction of Fetal Blood Pressure during Labour with Deep Learning Techniques

Bioengineering, 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 ...

Is It Time to Redefine Fetal Decelerations in Cardiotocography?

Journal of Personalized Medicine, 2022
Historically, fetal heart rate (FHR) decelerations were classified into “early”, “late”, and “variable” based on their relationship with uterine contractions. So far, three different putative etiologies were taken for granted. Recently, this belief, passed down through generations of birth attendants, has been questioned by physiologists.

Do Antenatal Interventions Improve Maternal and Perinatal Outcomes for Migrant Women Living in High‐Income Countries and What Guidelines Exist for Migrant Women? A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Birth, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Given the rise in migrant women giving birth in high‐income countries (HICs) there is a need to identify and evaluate the efficacy of existing interventions that address disparities in adverse pregnancy outcomes experienced by migrant women.

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

Diagnostics, 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.

Punctate White Matter Abnormality in Moderate‐to‐Late Preterm Infants

Annals of Neurology, Volume 98, Issue 2, Page 329-340, August 2025.
Objective Moderate‐to‐late preterm (MLP) infants contribute to the greatest proportion of preterm children with neurodevelopmental impairments. White matter injury (WMI) is common and predicts adverse outcomes in very preterm (VP) infants. However, little is known about white matter abnormality (WMA) in MLP infants.

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

Bioengineering, 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 ...
