Multi-Modal Uterine-Activity Measurements for Prediction of Embryo Implantation by Machine Learning

IEEE Access, 2021
In-vitro fertilization (IVF) is the most advanced treatment for infertility problems; however, its failure rate is still above 70% and the exact causes are often unknown.

Assessing signal loss, accuracy, and acceptability of an ambulatory fetal electrocardiography with cardiotocography in the antepartum and intrapartum phases. [PDF]

Acta Obstet Gynecol Scand
NIFECG has comparable accuracy to CTG for FHR and UC monitoring during the antepartum and intrapartum phases, and is well accepted by women and nurses. Given that 41.1% of NIFECG traces were rejected due to signal loss, further research on improving the technology to reduce signal loss, and re‐evaluating the criteria for rejecting traces is vital to ...

Visualization of contractions: Evaluation of a new experience design concept to enhance the childbirth experience

Birth, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 1025-1033, December 2023., 2023
This innovative design proposition is developed to enhance the childbirth experience. It consists of a smartphone application for birth preparation during pregnancy with information and coaching, in addition to a wall‐projection at the labor ward that visualizes the progress of labor based on uterine monitoring data.

New concepts on the etiology of endometriosis

Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Research, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 1090-1105, April 2023., 2023
Abstract Endometriosis is a serious, chronic disorder where endometrial tissue grows outside the uterus, causing severe pelvic pain and infertility. It affects 11% of women. Endometriosis is a multifactorial disorder of unclear etiology, although retrograde menstruation plays a major role.

Quality of fetal heart rate monitoring with transabdominal fetal ECG during maternal movement in labor: A prospective study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 101, Issue 11, Page 1269-1275, November 2022., 2022
Transabdominal electrocardiographic acquisition is a nouvelle technique that allows continuous fetal monitoring during maternal mobilization. It has better quality than Doppler during the first stage of labor, but overestimates variability during maternal movements.

Monica Healthcare: From the research laboratory to commercial reality—A real‐life case study

Healthcare Technology Letters, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 1-10, February 2021., 2021
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 ...
