Home uterine monitoring for detecting preterm labour [PDF]
To reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with preterm birth, home uterine activity monitoring aims for early detection of increased contraction frequency, and early intervention with tocolytic drugs to inhibit labour and prolong pregnancy. However, the effectiveness of such monitoring is disputed.To determine whether home uterine activity ...

Comparison of advanced electronic intrapartum monitoring system (Keyar device and Daksh application) with standard cardiotocography for assessment of fetal heart rate and uterine contractions [PDF]
Background: Conventional cardiotocography (CTG) used for intrapartum fetal monitoring has limitations related to mobility, comfort, and usability, especially in low-resource settings. Noninvasive ECG-based monitoring devices offer a potential alternative.
