Abstract

Fetal cardiac health monitoring with invasive methods have a limited viability because they can only be utilized during labor and are uncomfortable. On the other hand non-invasive fECG are adulterated with maternal ECG, and hence resulting in poor analysis. In contrast, Pulsed-wave Doppler (PwD) echocardiography generates high-quality signals representing fetal blood volume inflow-outflow. It also follows non-invasive signal acquisition. The only drawback is that it requires highly expensive setup. To address this aspect, we put forward a challenging research question - can we reconstruct PwD signals using non-invasive fetal ECG?
