Abstract The ability to predict the onset of labour is seen to be an important tool in a clinical setting. Magnetomyography has shown promise in the area of labour imminency prediction, but its clinical application remains limited due to high resource consumption associated with its broad number of channels.

Novel uterine contraction signals decomposition for enhanced preterm and birth imminency prediction
Preterm births are one of the key causes of death in children under the age of five: they have financial implications associated with care and cause great psychological distress for the families involved.

Monica Healthcare: From the research laboratory to commercial reality—A real‐life case study
Abstract The desire of many engineers is to see their work end up as a final product offering a real benefit to society—for a lecturer/professor at a university, this is a dream often out of reach of the majority. However, the university academic is a changed species from the early days of the binary line between Universities and Polytechnics and when ...

Comparison of electrohysterogram characteristics during uterine contraction and non-contraction during labor [PDF]
Uterine contraction is one of the most important indication in the labor progression. Electrohysterogram (EHG) is a promising method for monitoring uterine contraction and discriminating efficient and inefficient contractions.

A Comparative Study of Vaginal Labor and Caesarean Section Postpartum Uterine Myoelectrical Activity
Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is one of the major causes of maternal mortality and morbidity worldwide, with uterine atony being the most common origin. Currently there are no obstetrical techniques available for monitoring postpartum uterine dynamics, as ...

The electrohysterography by means of an extracellular electrode is expected to be a useful method to disclose functional disorders of the uterine muscles. To find the basic patterns in the electrohysterogram of the rat's uterus, the reaction of the organ was studied after the administration of estradiol, estriol, progesterone or estradiol plus ...

Feature Extraction and Classification of EHG between Pregnancy and Labour Group Using Hilbert-Huang Transform and Extreme Learning Machine. [PDF]
Preterm birth (PTB) is the leading cause of perinatal mortality and long‐term morbidity, which results in significant health and economic problems. The early detection of PTB has great significance for its prevention. The electrohysterogram (EHG) related to uterine contraction is a noninvasive, real‐time, and automatic novel technology which can be ...

Multivariate Time-Frequency Analysis of Electrohysterogram for Classification of Term and Preterm Labor [PDF]
Non-invasive electrohysterogram (EHG) could be a promising technique for the preterm birth prediction, which could enable us to diagnose the preterm birth before the labor and reduces the infant mortality and morbidity.

The extraction of the frequency components of a signal can be useful for the characterization of the underlying system. One method for isolating a frequency component of a signal is by the extraction and reconstruction of the local maxima or ridge of ...
