Simultaneous maternal heart rate registration during external fetal monitoring reduces the incidence of neonatal asphyxia-related outcomes.
In previous reports, cardiotocographic (CTG) fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring has shown only limited benefits in decreasing adverse perinatal outcomes pregnancies complicated by gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether an association exists between recently reported ZigZag pattern (FHR baseline amplitude changes > 25 bpm with a duration 2-30 min) and asphyxia-related neonatal GDM pregnancies.Intrapartal CTGs were recorded one-year cohort 5150...
Abstract Introduction The aim of the present study was to identify possible associations fetal heart rate (FHR) patterns during last 2 hours labor with asphyxia expressed by umbilical artery acidemia at birth and neonatal complications in a large obstetric cohort. Material methods Cardiotocographic recordings from 4988 singleton term childbirths over 1 year were evaluated retrospectively blinded pregnancy outcomes university teaching hospital Helsinki, Finland. Umbilical pH, base excess pO ,...
<b><i>Background:</i></b> While late decelerations and major bradycardia episodes in intrapartum cardiotocography (CTG) recordings are known to correlate with fetal distress,<sup></sup>little is of the importance saltatory pattern. <b><i>Objective:</i></b> The aim study was examine whether heart rate (FHR) pattern CTG registration associated hypoxia during last 2 h labor. <b><i>Design:</i></b> group consisted...
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Increased fetal heart rate variability (IFHRV), defined as (FHR) baseline amplitude changes of &gt;25 beats per minute with a duration ≥1 min, is an early sign intrapartum hypoxia. This study evaluated the level agreement machine learning (ML) algorithms-based recognition IFHRV patterns expert analysis. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Cardiotocographic recordings and cardiotocograms from 4,988 singleton term childbirths...
(Abstracted from Am J Obstet Gynecol 2024;230:379.e1–379.e12) Cardiotocography (CTG) is the most common fetal surveillance method during delivery, involving simultaneous monitoring of uterine activity and heart rate (FHR). Newer CTG monitors also track maternal (MHR), to prevent artifacts disturbing FHR detection.
