Abstract

This study aims to investigate the associations of maternal-fetal demographic information (age, gestational age, and body mass index (BMI)) and heart rate variability with their cardiac coupling mechanisms during pregnancy. Coupling was determined from one-minute maternal-fetal electrocardio-graphy (ECG) signals in 172 pregnant women using phase coherence (λ) calculations. Accordingly, variables such as gestational age, maternal BMI, and maternal-fetal heart rate were found significant (p-value < 0.05) in discriminating between [1:2], [2:3], and [3:5] coupling scenarios. The results suggest the importance of maternal-fetal parameters and ECG recordings in the assessment of fetal well-being during pregnancy. Clinical Relevance-The maternal psychophysiological states are highly correlated with the fetal cardiac system.
