Abstract: System (10) for extracting a fetal heart rate from at least one maternal signal using a computer processor (26). The system includes sensors (12-18) attached to a patient to receive abdominal ECG signals and a recorder and digitizer (20) to record and digitize each at least one maternal signal in a maternal signal buffer (22A-22D). The system further includes a peak detector (40) to identify candidate peaks in the maternal signal buffer. The signal stacker (42) of the system stacks the divides at least one maternal signal buffer into a plurality of snippets, each snippet including one candidate peak and a spatial filter (44) to identify and attenuate a maternal QRS signal in the plurality of snippets of the maternal signal buffer, the spatial filter including at least one of principal component analysis and orthogonal projection, to produce a raw fetal ECG signal which is stored in a raw fetal ECG buffer. The system further includes a fetal QRS identifier (46) for identifying peaks in the raw fetal ECG buffer by at least one of principal component analysis and a peak-detector followed by rule based fQRS extraction and a merger (48) to calculate and merge the fetal heart rate from the identified peaks.

Abstract: In respiratory monitoring, a breathing cycle detector (44) detects a breath interval in airway pressure and/or flow data. A respiratory parameters estimator and validator (30) asynchronously fits the airway pressure and airway flow data to an equation of motion of the lungs relating airway pressure and airway flow to generate asynchronously estimated respiratory parameters for the breath interval, using a sliding time window that is not synchronized with the breath interval. The asynchronously estimated respiratory parameters for the breath interval are validated using at least one physiological plausibility criterion defined with respect to the breath interval. Responsive to failure of the validation, the airway pressure and airway flow data are synchronously fitted to the equation of motion of the lungs to generate synchronously estimated respiratory parameters for the breath interval. The synchronous fitting is performed in a time window aligned with the breath interval.
