Uterine muscle networks: Connectivity analysis of the EHG during pregnancy and Labor [PDF]
In this paper, we propose a new framework to analyze the electrical activity of the uterus recorded by electrohysterography (EHG), from abdominal electrodes (a grid of 4x4 electrodes) during pregnancy and labor. We evaluate the potential use of the synchronization between EHG signals in characterizing electrical activity of the uterus during pregnancy ...

(Abstracted from Am J Obstet Gynecol 2019;221:487.e1–487.e8) Previously defined time limits for latent labor (defined as ending at 6 cm) have been removed by recommendations on preventing primary cesarean delivery (which also urge clinicians to avoid cesarean delivery for labor abnormalities in the latent phase). However, relatively little is
