Zusammenfassung

Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the fetal heart rate (FHR) signal quality of non-invasive abdominal fetal ECG in comparison to Doppler ultrasound CTG during the first and second stage of labour. Study design: This was a prospective observational study of non-invasive fetal ECG using 5 abdominally sited electrodes against the traditional Doppler ultrasound CTG probe on 144 patients. Data were analyzed for signal quality before and after outlier removal. Results: Abdominal fetal ECG signal quality was significantly better during the first stage of labour in comparison to Doppler CTG (median fe…
