Abstract
A method of non-intrusively measuring brainwave activity in a fetus is provided. The method provides the steps of: directing at least a first monitoring sensor to a pregnant woman's body; measuring a first set of signals received by the at least first monitoring sensor; filtering non-fetal brainwave signals from the first set of signals, resulting in fetal brainwave activity signals; and determining fetal brainwave activity from the fetal brainwave activity signals.
Claims20
A method of non-intrusively measuring brainwave activity in a fetus, the method comprising the steps of:
- (a) directing at least a first monitoring sensor to a pregnant woman's body;
- (b) measuring a first set of signals received by the at least first monitoring sensor;
- (c) filtering non-fetal brainwave signals from the first set of signals, resulting in fetal brainwave activity signals;
- and
- (d) determining fetal brainwave activity from the fetal brainwave activity signals.
A method of non-intrusively measuring brainwave activity in a fetus, the method comprising the steps of:
- (a) receiving data from a first set of sensors;
- (b) filtering non-fetal brainwave signals from the data, resulting in fetal brainwave activity signals;
- and
- (c) determining fetal brainwave activity from the fetal brainwave activity signals.
- (d) repeating steps (a)-(c) a plurality of times;
- and
- (e) determining a trend of fetal functional brain development and well-being based on the fetal brainwave activity.
A method of non-intrusively measuring brainwave activity in a fetus, the method comprising the steps of:
- (a) directing at least a first monitoring sensor to a pregnant woman's body;
- (b) measuring a first set of signals received by the at least first monitoring sensor;
- (c) repeating steps (a) and (b) a plurality of times;
- and
- (d) using an independent method to identify fetal brainwave signals in the first set of signals.
