Abstract :
Recording of the cardiotocogram (CTG) consists of fetal heart rate (fHR) and tocographic signal. This method is used routinely for intrapartal evaluation of the well being of the fetus. In this paper we present our approach to preprocessing of the fHR signal. Additionally we present annotation software that was developed in order to obtain new expert annotations of the recordings in our newly established database.
