Multichannel EMG Diagnosing True Preterm Labor

Summary

We have designed new electromyography sensors for measuring uterine activity. These sensors are directional - they preferentially report uterine muscle contractions at specific locations, called regions. By measuring the synchronization of the regions of the uterus during contractions we intend to non-invasively determine if any patient is in-labor or not-in-labor. Accurately diagnosing true preterm labor allows timely intervention to avoid preterm birth; Accurately diagnosing false preterm labor avoids needlessly treating patients who would not benefit.

Conditions

  • Pregnancy Preterm
  • Labor; Irregular
  • Preterm Labor

Interventions

DEVICE

Uncertain diagnosis of true labor

Multichannel EMG of uterine bioelectrical signals will be recorded using area sensors. The output of the synchronization calculations will be correlated with the time to delivery
