Cardiotocography (CTG) is the main tool used for fetal monitoring during labour. Interpretation of CTG requires dynamic pattern recognition in real time. It is recognised as a difficult task with high inter- and intra-observer disagreement.…
Cardiotocography (CTG) is a key element when it comes to monitoring fetal well-being. Obstetricians use it to observe the fetal heart rate (FHR) and the uterine contraction (UC). The goal is to determine how the fetus reacts to the…
Objective: To develop and interpret a supervised variational autoencoder (VAE) model for classifying cardiotocography (CTG) signals based on pregnancy outcomes, addressing interpretability limits of current deep learning approaches.…
Gynaecologists and obstetricians visually interpret cardiotocography (CTG) traces using the International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) guidelines to assess the wellbeing of the foetus during antenatal care. This approach…
Intrapartum cardiotocography (CTG) is widely used for fetal monitoring during labor, yet its interpretation suffers from high inter-observer variability and limited predictive accuracy. Deep learning approaches have been constrained by the…
The monitoring of fetal heart rate (FHR) and the assessment of its variability are crucial for preventing fetal compromise and adverse outcomes. However, traditional methods encounter limitations arising from equipment performance, data…
