Monitoring fetal electrocortical activity during labour for predicting worsening acidemia: a prospective study in the ovine fetus near term. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 BackgroundSevere fetal acidemia during labour with arterial pH below 7.00 is associated with increased risk of hypoxic-ischemic brain injury. Electronic fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring, the mainstay of intrapartum surveillance, has poor specificity for

Journal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized Medicine, 2021 Background: The relationship between non-reassuring fetal heart rate (FHR) pattern, acidemia at birth and neonatal morbidity remains unclear. Our aim was to compare low versus high pH cord blood infants of women detected with a Category II FHR pattern ...

Prediction of Fetal Blood Pressure during Labour with Deep Learning Techniques
Bioengineering, 2023 Our objective is to develop a model for the prediction of minimum fetal blood pressure (FBP) during fetal heart rate (FHR) decelerations. Experimental data from umbilical occlusions in near-term fetal sheep (2698 occlusions from 57 near-term lambs) were ...

Monitoring Fetal Electroencephalogram Intrapartum: A Systematic Literature Review
Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2020 Background: Studies about the feasibility of monitoring fetal electroencephalogram (fEEG) during labor began in the early 1940s. By the 1970s, clear diagnostic and prognostic benefits from intrapartum fEEG monitoring were reported, but until today, this ...
