Estimating Fetal Gestational Age Using Cardiac Valve Intervals
2016
2016 Computing in Cardiology Conference (CinC)
unpublished
A new automated method for estimation of the gestational age is presented in this paper based on the intervals between fetal cardiac valve timings and the Q-wave of fetal electrocardiogram (fECG). ...
Since valve intervals reflect the autonomic function, this method provides a novel measure of the development of fetal autonomic nervous system that may be growth curve independent. ...
Discussion and Conclusion In this paper a new GA estimator using fetal cardiac valve intervals is proposed. ...

Assessment of Fetal Development Using Cardiac Valve Intervals
2017
Frontiers in Physiology
This hypothesis was evaluated by modeling the fetal development using the cardiac intervals and validating against the gold standard gestational age identified by Crown-Rump Length (CRL). ...
These intervals were estimated automatically from one-dimensional Doppler Ultrasound and noninvasive fECG. We hypothesize that the fetal growth can be estimated by the cardiac valve intervals. ...
