A computer aided fetal distress diagnosing model is developed using time frequency representation and deep neural networks to analyze and predict cardiotocography signals. The model achieves high accuracy and sensitivity, making it a valuable decision-making aid for obstetricians and gynecologists.
Background: Clinically cardiotocography is a technique which is used to monitor and evaluate the level of fetal distress. Even though, CTG is the most widely used device to monitor determine the fetus health, existence of high false positive result from the visual interpretation has a significant contribution to unnecessary surgical delivery or delayed intervention. Objective: In the current study an innovative computer aided fetal distress diagnosing model is developed by using time frequency representation of FHR signal using generalized Morse wavelet and the concept of transfer learning of pre-trained ResNet 50 deep neural network model. Method: From the CTG data that is obtained from the only open access CTU-UHB data base only FHR signal is extracted and preprocessed to remove noises and spikes. After preprocessing the time frequency information of FHR signal is extracted by using generalized Morse wavelet and fed to a pre-trained ResNet 50 model which is fine tuned and configured according to the dataset. Main outcome measures: Sensitivity (Se), specificity (Sp) and accuracy (Acc) of the model adopted from binary confusion matrix is used as outcome measures. Result: After successfully training the model, a comprehensive experimentation of testing is conducted for FHR data for which a recording is made during early stage of labor and last stage of labor. Thus, a promising classification result which is accuracy of 98.7%, sensitivity of 97.0% and specificity 100% are achieved for FHR signal of 1st stage of labor. For FHR recorded in last stage of labor, accuracy of 96.1%, sensitivity of 94.1% and specificity 97.7% are achieved. Conclusion: The developed model can be used as a decision-making aid system for obstetrician and gynecologist.
