Automated Conduction Velocity Analysis in the Electrohysterogram for Prediction of Imminent Delivery: A Preliminary Study

Figure 2

The method for analyzing the CV. The EHG is recorded using a HD electrode grid plus a bipolar electrode pair. Contractions are selected based on the eIUP, which is derived from the bipolar electrodes, plus the external tocodynamometer and maternal perception. Finally, the delays are estimated in overlapping windows using a maximum likelihood approach.
