Relationship between electrohysterogram and internal uterine pressure: a preliminary study [PDF]

open access: yes2006 International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2006
Electrohysterography (EHG) is a promising technique for monitoring the uterine activity, based on electrical recordings on the abdominal surface. However, a quantitative estimation of the internal uterine pressure (IUP) by means of EHG is not available for clinical practice.

Improved classification of term and preterm births from electrohysterogram signals using machine learning with model error features

open access: yesDiscover Applied Sciences
Preterm birth (PTB) affects an estimated 15 million infants worldwide each year, raising an enormous challenge in the field of maternal-fetal medicine. This work explores machine learning approaches for distinguishing between term and preterm birth from ...

New electrohysterogram-based estimators of intrauterine pressure signal, tonus and contraction peak for non-invasive labor monitoring [PDF]

open access: yesPhysiological Measurement, 2019
Background: Uterine activity monitoring is an essential part of managing the progress of pregnancy and labor. Although intrauterine pressure (IUP) is the only reliable method of estimating uterine mechanical activity, it is highly invasive.

On the prediction of premature births in Hispanic labour patients using uterine contractions, heart beat signals and prediction machines. [PDF]

open access: yesHealthc Technol Lett, 2023
Decision support model using uterine contractions and for the first time ever, using maternal and foetus heart rate signals. Abstract Preterm birth is a global epidemic affecting millions of mothers across different ethnicities. The cause of the condition remains unknown but has recognised health‐based implications, in addition to financial and ...

Comparison of labour induction with misoprostol and dinoprostone and characterization of uterine response based on electrohysterogram [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine, 2019
[EN] Objective: The objective of this study is to compare the uterine activity response between women administered dinoprostone (prostaglandin E2) and misoprostol (prostaglandin E1) for induction of labour (IOL) by analysing not only the traditional ...

An update on pacemaking in the myometrium. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Physiol
Abstract figure legend The spread of multiple electrical signals (panel A, blue‐to‐red indicates increasing electrical excitability) that are spatiotemporally distinct, yet in‐phase with the excitatory episode, determines action potential shape and form (panel B, as recorded by single cell microelectrodes) and ensures contractile amplitude and duration

Use of External Uterine Electromyography Across Stage I Labor

open access: yesJournal of Midwifery &Women's Health, Volume 68, Issue 5, Page 575-580, September/October 2023., 2023
Introduction Highly sensitive, external uterine electromyography (EMG) measures myometrial electrical activity and is noninvasive compared with the clinical intrauterine pressure catheter. Most experimental studies have measured EMG in 30‐minute epochs, limiting the utility of this instrumentation in intrapartum clinical practice.

Estimating uterine activity from electrohysterogram measurements via statistical tensor decomposition [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedical Signal Processing and Control, 2022
Complications during pregnancy and labor are common and can be especially detrimental in populations with limited access to healthcare. A promising technology to address these complications is the electrohysterogram (EHG), which measures abdominal ...

Entropy Information of Pulse Dynamics in Three Stages of Pregnancy

open access: yesEvidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
The aim of the present study is to use entropy to explore the change of pulse generated by normal pregnant women with gestational. Firstly, the subjects were divided into early (E), middle (M), and late (L) three stages according to gestational age.
