A valuable alternative to traditional diagnostic tool to record fetal heart rate, to monitor the general fetal well-being, is fetal phonocardiography, a passive and low cost acoustic recording of fetal heart sounds. In this paper, it is presented a simulating software of fetal phonocardiographic signals relative to different fetal physiological states and recording conditions (for example different...
As wireless bio-medical long term monitoring moves towards personal monitoring it demands very high input impedance systems capable to extend the reading of bio-signal during the daily activities offering a kind of “stress free“, convenient connection, with no need for skin preparation. In particular we highlight the development and broad applications of our own circuits for wearable bio-potential...
Cardiotocographic data provide physicians information about foetal development and, through assessment of specific parameters (like accelerations, uterine contractions, ...), permit to assess conditions such as foetal distress. An incorrect evaluation of foetal status can be of course very dangerous. In the last decades, to improve interpretation of cardiotocographic recordings, great interest has...
In this work we describe an Italian experience of foetal home monitor, based on a pilot system consisting of three phonocardiograph home monitors by Pentavox. Phonocardiography is non invasive and passive in nature and allows developing of low-cost and easy to use equipments. Its application in a telemonitoring system enhances diagnostic capabilities, allowing long-term measurements. The home monitors...
