A Comparative Study of Vaginal Labor and Caesarean Section Postpartum Uterine Myoelectrical Activity [PDF]

Sensors, 2020
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 ...

Non-invasive electrophysiological monitoring vs conventional monitoring during labour in a tertiary obstetric care centre in the Netherlands: study protocol of a cohort intervention random sampling study (NIEM-II study) [PDF]

BMJ Open
Introduction Conventional cardiotocography (CTG) has been used extensively to monitor the fetal condition during labour. However, conventional non-invasive monitoring is limited by the difficulty of obtaining an adequate signal quality, particularly in ...

Protocol for prognosticating PPD using EEG changes during labor pain by uterine contractions: a prospective cohort study in the first stage of labor [PDF]

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth
Background Lack of motivation and behavioral abnormalities are the hallmarks of postpartum depression (PPD). Severe uterine contractions during labor are pain triggers for psychiatric disorders, including PPD in women during the puerperium.

End-to-end learning with interpretation on electrohysterography data to predict preterm birth [PDF]

Computers in Biology and Medicine, 2022
Prediction of preterm birth is a difficult task for clinicians. By examining an electrohysterogram, electrical activity of the uterus that can lead to preterm birth can be detected. Since signals associated with uterine activity are difficult to interpret for clinicians without a background in signal processing, machine learning may be a viable ...

Enhancing uterine contraction detection through novel EHG signal processing: a pilot study leveraging the relationship between slow and fast wave components to improve signal quality and noise resilience [PDF]

Frontiers in Physiology
Uterine contractions, driven by complex electrical activities within the uterine smooth muscle cells, play a critical role in labor and delivery. Various techniques, including EHG and EMMI, have been developed to record and image uterine electrical ...

LaborEase: An Artificial Intelligence-Based Wearable Electrohysterography Device for Preterm Pregnancy Detection

IEEE Access
In this research, a portable electrohysterography device is developed for electrohysterogram recording and early detection of preterm pregnancies using machine learning techniques to classify the acquired recordings as preterm or term. The data collected

Prediction of preterm deliveries from EHG signals using machine learning.

PLoS ONE, 2013
There has been some improvement in the treatment of preterm infants, which has helped to increase their chance of survival. However, the rate of premature births is still globally increasing.

Characterization of uterine activity by electrohysterography [PDF]

, 2010
A growing number of pregnancies is complicated by miscarriage, preterm delivery, and birth defects, with consequent health problems later in life. It is therefore increasingly important to monitor the health status of mother and fetus, so as to permit timely medical intervention when acute health risks are detected.

Method for Simultaneous Monitoring of Uterine Contractions and Abdominal Pushing in a Childbirth [PDF]

International Journal of Electronics and Telecommunications, 2023
Effective and safe labour requires good cooperation of all the physiological systems. A proper synchronization of uterine and abdominal muscles is necessary for labour progression. Therefore, a new method for simultaneous monitoring of uterine activities
