Studies examining the fetal heart rate (FHR) prior to uterine rupture consistently report that non-reassuring fetal heart rate patterns are the predominant sign suggesting impending or actual uterine ...

A normal healthy heart beats at a variable rate with extraordinarily complex fluctuations across a wide range of time scales. Reduced complexity of heart rate has both clinical and dynamical ...

The objective of this study is to present and describe the fetal heart rate appearance in pregnancies complicated by an antenatal spontaneous umbilical cord hematoma that resulted in a live birth.

Simple and interesting heart rate dynamics have been identified in premature human infants -- reversible transitions to large-amplitude periodic oscillations -- and the appearance and disappearance of ...
