Multisensor Technology for Beat to Beat Fetal Heart Rate Measurement

Development of a Real-time Signal Processing Algorithm, for Beat-beat Measurement of Fetal Heart Rate and Uterine Contractions by Coupling Non-invasive ABDOminal Sensors

The CIC-IT 1403 laboratory of the University Hospital of Lille has developed a technological solution for acquiring and synchronizing abdominal ECG, acoustic and Doppler signals.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to build a database of signals issued from this device to develop signal processing algorithms to allow optimization of the fetal heart rate calculation.

This study will be carried out in the maternity ward of the Jeanne de Flandre Hospital in the maternal-fetal pathology department Doppler, ECG and acoustic sensors will be placed on the mother's abdomen to capture the heart rate of the fetus and mother as well as uterine contractions.

For each of the participants, we will make two 15-minute recordings: one with conventional ECG electrodes and one with ECG textile electrodes.

This procedure will not affect the usual care of the patient
