AI may have an ‘eye’ on growing babies: Could predict premature birth as early as 31 weeks
Fox News
Researchers from Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, developed a deep learning model that can predict preterm births by analyzing electrical activity in a woman’s uterus during pregnancy.
Now, researchers from Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, are looking to improve those odds through the use of artificial intelligence. "Our work contributes to the goal of using EHG measuring devices for accurately predicting preterm birth." "Being able to predict who is at risk before they present in labor would be highly beneficial." "A far larger dataset would be required for developing and validating a medical product." Melissa Rudy is health editor and a member of the lifestyle team at Fox News Digital.
They developed a deep learning model that can predict preterm births by analyzing electrical activity in the woman’s uterus during pregnancy — then they tested the model in a study that was published in the medical journal PLOS One.
