Abstract
Description
This dataset consist of 73 electrohisterography (EHG) signals (10 minutes) collected from two sources recorded between 2017 and 2019, involving women experiencing low-risk term and moderate preterm labor (Fs=20 Hz). Ten-minute transabdominal recordings were conducted at the Maternal and Childhood Research Center (CIMIGen) in Iztapalapa, Mexico City, and at the Maternal-Perinatal Hospital Mónica Pretelini-Sáenz (MPHMPS) in Toluca, State of Mexico. All participants were clinically healthy with no complications, as indicated by their medical history. Additionally, we recollected some clinical characteristics available in the different datasets, such as weeks of pregnancy, percentage of cervical effacement, and number of contractions in 10 minutes . Furthermore, newborn data were gathered to confirm low-risk preterm and term labor, including the 5-minute Apgar score, birth weight, and newborn length. The participants were categorized into three groups based on cervical dilation at the time of electrophysiological recordings, with 1 cm representing the smallest recorded dilation and 10 cm indicating full cervical dilation. The groups were defined as follows: 1-4 cm (low dilation), 5-6 cm (moderate dilation), and 7-10 cm (advanced dilation).
