Computer analysis versus standard check of baby's heart rate in growth-restricted pregnancies
Part of Genetic & congenital, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares a computer-based analysis of the baby's heart rate tracing (called STV) with the standard visual check doctors perform. The goal is to see if the computer method better identifies babies who are struggling, so doctors can act sooner to keep the baby safe.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are pregnant with a single baby (not twins or more).
- You are between 24 weeks and 31 weeks and 6 days of pregnancy.
- Your baby has been diagnosed with severe early-onset growth restriction, meaning the baby is much smaller than expected for the number of weeks of pregnancy.
- You are 18 years or older.
- You can give written permission to use your health data for this study.

This study looks at two ways to manage early-onset fetal growth restriction (when a baby is smaller than expected). It compares using blood tests for angiogenic factors versus feto-placental Doppler ultrasound to guide care. The goal is to find the best way to monitor and protect your baby's health.
This study tests new sensors to check on a baby's wellbeing during the third trimester of pregnancy, as an alternative to standard monitors. You would wear a sensor on your belly to track your baby's heartbeat and movements without wires or needles.
This study monitors the baby's heart in the womb during late pregnancy to make sure it is developing well. It may help find any concerns early.
This study tests whether an AI program (like a smart computer) can read fetal heart rate tracings during labor as well as doctors do. The goal is to see if the AI helps doctors make better decisions during childbirth.
This study is testing a new way to find out early in pregnancy if you might be at risk for stillbirth. If you join, researchers will follow you through delivery to see if the screening tool helps improve outcomes.
This study tests if women with high-risk pregnancies can safely use a remote monitor at home instead of staying in the hospital. You would use a belly patch to send your baby's heart rate and your contractions to your care team.
