About this study

Official title: Development of a Real-time Signal Processing Algorithm, for Beat-beat Measurement of Fetal Heart Rate and Uterine Contractions by Coupling Non-invasive ABDOminal Sensors

The CIC-IT 1403 laboratory of the University Hospital of Lille has developed a technological solution for acquiring and synchronizing abdominal ECG, acoustic and Doppler signals.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to build a database of signals issued from this device to develop signal processing algorithms to allow optimization of the fetal heart rate calculation.

This study will be carried out in the maternity ward of the Jeanne de Flandre Hospital in the maternal-fetal pathology department Doppler, ECG and acoustic sensors will be placed on the mother's abdomen to capture the heart rate of the fetus and mother as well as uterine contractions.

For each of the participants, we will make two 15-minute recordings: one with conventional ECG electrodes and one with ECG textile electrodes.

This procedure will not affect the usual care of the patient

Receives: Device: Transabdominal Fetal Heart Rate

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The fetal heart rate signal

    The fetal heart rate signal extraction algorithm will be based on the various signal processing tools developed by the INSERM CIC-IT 1403 laboratory

    Measured: at 15 minutes

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The uterine contraction signal

    The uterine contraction signal extraction algorithm will be based on the different signal processing tools developed by the INSERM CIC-IT 1403 laboratory.

    Measured: at 15 minutes

  2. Measuring the root mean square deviation between the heart rate signals from the device and the Doppler

    Measured: at 15 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Transabdominal Fetal Heart Rate in people with Obstetric Labor, run by University Hospital, Lille at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Dec 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The fetal heart rate signal (time frame: at 15 minutes). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Dec 2022.
