Abstract
Background:The purpose of this study was
the possibility to follow the progress of labour
using electromyographic (EMG) signals obtained from the uterine corpus and the cervix.
Methods: 28 healty primiparous women
with induced labour at an age from 19 to
29 years were enrolled in the study. For interpretation of EMG signals Sample entropy
(SampEn), the measure of time series regularity was used. SampEn values were related
to the progress of labour recorded in the partogram. h e main outcome is association between labour progress and values of SampEn.
Results: Approaching the childbirth during
normally progressing labour, regular activity of uterine corpus muscles and cervical
muscles is indicated as a decreasing trend in
values of SampEn. A delay in the active phase
of labour due to active contractions of cervical circular muscles is indicated in greater
values of SampEn calculated from cervical
EMG activity.
Conclusions: By measuring and processing
of EMG signals from the uterine corpus and
the cervix an obstetrician can obtain an additional useful information on the progress
of labour.
