TLDR
The proposed novel non-linear FHR baseline estimation method using empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and clustering method using Kohonen neural network (KNN) reaches a higher subjective satisfaction of the clinical experts with closer basal FHR values and more accurate acceleration/deceleration detections.Abstract:
Automated analysis of the fetal heart rate (FHR) curve plays a significant role in computer-aided fetal monitoring. The first and critical step is the estimation of the FHR baseline. Our study proposes a novel non-linear FHR baseline estimation method using empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and clustering method using Kohonen neural network (KNN). To assess the baseline quality, a comparative study was made against a cited linear baseline estimation algorithm and an existing baseline estimation algorithm of a fetal monitor's platform using randomly selected FHR signals. The results show that the proposed method reaches a higher subjective satisfaction of the clinical experts with closer basal FHR values and more accurate acceleration/deceleration detections.read more

Fetal heart rate baseline estimation with analysis of fetal movement signal.
TL;DR: The results showed that the combined method, where the fetal movement detection result was the union of results of actography and tocography, achieved a better performance with the highest sensitivity and an acceptable positive predictive value (PPV).

Solution of Controversy in Fetal Heart Rate Patterns
TL;DR: Although perinatal mortality, neonatal asphyxia and cerebral palsy reduced after introduction of intrapartum FHR monitoring, there remained controversy on HR patterns in the electronic fetal monitoring (EFM) and cardiotokography (CTG).

TL;DR: Analysis of most cardiotocographic events is poorly reproducible, even when experts use the FIGO guidelines, which may be explained by some still ambiguous guidelines, by eyeball limitations in evaluation of subtle events, and by the incapacity of busy clinicians to assess complex and multiple cardiotOCographic events in a systematic and disciplined fashion.

TL;DR: A comparison of simultaneous direct ECG and ultrasound records shows that the latter provide reasonable statistical measures of heart period variation, and also of accelerations and decelerations provided that signal loss is taken into account.
