| Popis: |
A method for processing ultrasound signals for the estimation of fetal heart rate (FHR) using pulsed wave ultrasound with short bursts during the active stage of labor is presented. The major advantage of this technique is that it enables the simultaneous calculation of FHR and the position of the fetal head along the birth canal. The algorithm was tested against commonly used fetal electrocardiogram, yielding excellent results where 99% of the measurements were within a range of ±3 beats per minute. |
