Prediction of twin preterm birth based on quadratic discriminant analysis and electrohysterogram

Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering
Preterm birth is a significant cause of adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. Clinical evidence demonstrates a significantly higher incidence of preterm birth in twin pregnancies compared to singletons.

Electrohysterogram System with Remote Assistance for Pregnant Women

2023 International Conference on Network, Multimedia and Information Technology (NMITCON), 2023
The World Health Organisation (WHO) states, preterm birth (PTB) as the leading cause of death for children under the age of five. An estimated 15 million babies are born preterm every year, and this number is still rising.

Rejection of the maternal electrocardiogram in the electrohysterogram signal

IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 2000
The electrohysterogram (EHG) signal is mainly corrupted by the mother's electrocardiogram (ECG), which remains present despite analog filtering during acquisition. Wavelets are a powerful denoising tool and have already proved their efficiency on the EHG. In this paper, we propose a new method that employs the redundant wavelet packet transform.

Vectorial analysis of the electrohysterogram for prediction of preterm delivery: A preliminary study

2011 Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2011
Electrophysiological measurement of uterine contractions, referred to as electrohysterogram (EHG), is potentially more informative than methods currently used during pregnancy for timely recognition of complications such as preterm labor. Unfortunately, EHG measurement and interpretation remain challenging.

Recording of electrohysterogram laplacian potential

2011 Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2011
Preterm birth is the main cause of the neonatal morbidity. Noninvasive recording of uterine myoelectrical activity (electrohysterogram, EHG) could be an alternative to the monitoring of uterine dynamics which are currently based on tocodynamometers (TOCO).

Preterm Birth Prediction Using GraphSAGE and Electrohysterogram Data

2025 Eleventh International Conference on Bio Signals, Images, and Instrumentation (ICBSII)
Preterm birth (PTB) affects around 15 million infants every year and causes major health issues, making it a worldwide health concern [4]. The demand for precise early prediction methods has motivated researchers to explore the use of Electrohysterogram (

Predictive Obstetrics: Electrohysterogram-Based Detection of Preterm Labor

2025 47th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC)
Preterm birth is a significant cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality, where early and reliable risk prediction can substantially reduce complications and improve maternal and neonatal health outcomes. Electrohysterography (EHG) emerges as a suitable non-invasive technique for monitoring uterine activity and detecting preterm labor, offering higher

Slope of Tangent (SOT): A New Automatic Method for Segmenting Uterine Muscular Contraction Bursts from the Electrohysterogram

2025 Eighth International Conference on Advances in Biomedical Engineering (ICABME)
The use of electrohysterogram (EHG) - uterine muscular activity signals - along with artificial intelligence models would help in the prediction of preterm delivery and thereby save the lives of many early-delivered infants through the necessary early ...

Use of the electrohysterogram signal for characterization of contractions during pregnancy

IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 1999
This article proposes a method to evaluate the ability of the electrohysterogram signal to characterize the contractions during pregnancy, in a population with high risk of preterm deliveries. This study constitutes a first stage of a project intended to develop a monitoring system for the early diagnosis of preterm deliveries.

Accuracy of Frequency-Related Parameters of the Electrohysterogram for Predicting Preterm Delivery

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 2009
The diagnosis of labor and effective prevention of preterm delivery are still among the most significant problems faced by obstetricians. Currently, there is no technique or method for objectively monitoring the uterus and assessing whether the organ has entered a state of increased activity that may indicate labor.
