Introduction Non‐invasive fetal electrocardiography (NIFECG) has potential benefits over the computerized cardiotocography (cCTG) that may permit its development in remote fetal heart‐rate monitoring.

Fetal ECG Arrhythmia Detection Based on DensNet Transfer Learning
Purpose: The mortality rate of fetuses due to heart defects is a major concern for clinicians. The fetus's heart is monitored non-invasively using the abdominal Electrocardiogram (ECG) of the mother.

Prenatally diagnosed fetal heart rhythm abnormalities—incidence, diagnosis and outcome
Backrounds: Fetal arrhythmias represent a significant cause of fetal morbidity and mortality and occur in approximately 1–3% of pregnancies. The unknown fetal arrhythmias are the cause of intrauterine fetal demise in as many as 3–10% of cases, as well as

Heart rate variability in the general population and its determining factors [PDF]
Background: As the leading cause of mortality in Switzerland and many other developed countries, cardiovascular disease (CVD) is of high significance in public health: In 2003, CVD was the leading cause of death in Switzerland, accounting for 38% of ...

Variations on fetal heart rate variability [PDF]
Intrapartum electronic fetal monitoring (EFM) is widely used throughout the developed and developing world. This practice is based on the understanding that fetal heart rate (FHR) is sensitive to hypoxia. During labour, the fetus may be exposed to acute hypoxia during uterine contractions or intrapartum insults, and has well‐established cardiovascular ...

Using new fetal heart rate monitoring technology: Experiences and perceptions among skilled birth attendants and laboring women in Tanzania [PDF]
Each year, an estimated 5.2 million stillbirths and newborn deaths occur, primarily in low-resource settings. Regular fetal heart rate monitoring during labor and the early detection of fetal distress is one method to identify a fetus at risk and ...

Evaluation of fetal heart rate variation during amniocentesis: correlation with fetal karyotype [PDF]
We monitored the fetal heart rate (FHR) during amniocentesis in fetuses at 16-18 weeks of gestation and investigated whether an abnormal FHR is associated with chromosomal ...
