Towards quick clinical adaption of Diagnostic Decision Support System (DDSS) for pregnancy monitoring in low-resource settings

This project aims to develop advanced algorithms to convert EHG to TOCO-like waveforms to assist clinicians for fast adoption of EHG in clinical practice. Further, clinically useful features will be extracted from the derived waveforms to develop a Diagnostic Decision Support System (DDSS), which helps reducing the training requirements for clinicians, enabling wide pregnancy monitoring for low-resource settings.
