dc.titleAn automated methodology for fetal heart rate extraction from the abdominal electrocardiogramen
heal.abstractThis paper introduces an automated methodology for the extraction of fetal heart rate from cutaneous potential abdominal electrocardiogram (abdECG) recordings. A three-stage methodology is proposed. Having the initial recording, which consists of a small number of abdECG leads in the first stage, the maternal R-peaks and fiducial points (QRS onset and offset) are detected using time-frequency (t-f) analysis and medical knowledge. Then, the maternal QRS complexes are eliminated. In the second stage, the positions of the candidate fetal R-peaks are located using complex wavelets and matching theory techniques. In the third stage, the fetal R-peaks, which overlap with the maternal QRS complexes (eliminated in the first stage) are found using two approaches: a heuristic algorithm technique and a histogram-based technique. The fetal R-peaks detected are used to calculate the fetal heart rate. The methodology is validated using a dataset of eight short and ten long-duration recordings, obtained between the 20th and the 41st week of gestation, and the obtained accuracy is 97.47%. The proposed methodology is advantageous, since it is based on the analysis of few abdominal leads in contrast to other proposed methods, which need a large number of leads.en
