Timely detection of abnormal cardiotocography (CTG) during labor plays a crucial role in enhancing fetal prognosis. Recent research has explored the use of deep learning for CTG interpretation, most studies rely on small, localized datasets or focus ...
OBJECTIVE: Sub-optimal uterine-placental perfusion and fetal nutrition can lead to intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), also called fetal growth restriction (FGR). Antenatal cardiotocography (CTG) can aid in the early detection of IUGR. Reliably d...
Fetal health holds paramount importance in prenatal care and obstetrics, as it directly impacts the wellbeing of mother and fetus. Monitoring fetal health through pregnancy is crucial for identifying and addressing potential risks and complications t...
Cardiotocography (CTG) is the main tool available to detect neonatal acidemia during delivery. Presently, obstetricians and midwives primarily rely on visual interpretation, leading to a significant intra-observer variability. In this paper, we build...

OBJECTIVES: This study aims to develop a multimodal deep learning-based algorithm for detecting specific fetal heart rate (FHR) events, to enhance automatic monitoring and intelligent assessment of fetal well-being.
Predictive modeling is becoming increasingly popular in the context of early disease detection. The use of machine learning approaches for predictive modeling can help early detection of diseases thereby enabling medical experts to appropriate medica...
In this study, a deep learning model is proposed for the classification of fetal health into 3 categories: Normal, suspect, and pathological. The primary objective is to utilize the power of deep learning to improve the efficiency and effectiveness o...

Cardiotocography (CTG) is used to assess the health of the fetus during birth or antenatally in the third trimester. It concurrently detects the maternal uterine contractions (UC) and fetal heart rate (FHR). Fetal distress, which may require therapeu...
Standard clinical practice to assess fetal well-being during labour utilises monitoring of the fetal heart rate (FHR) using cardiotocography. However, visual evaluation of FHR signals can result in subjective interpretations leading to inter and intr...
