A Clinical Study for the Development of a Device (Lovelace) for Antepartum Fetal Monitoring

Bloomlife Lovelace FT is a non-invasive, wireless, external measurement system used to measure accelerometer and electrophysiological signals on pregnant women with a singleton pregnancy, by acquiring biopotential signals from abdominal surface electrodes.In this study, Bloomlife Lovelace FT is used to collect the dataset needed for the development of a future product (Bloomlife Lovelace) for the monitoring of fetal heart rate, maternal heart rate and uterine activity.
