“…Ultrasound and Magneto-cardiography, Cardiotocography, tocography, are different methods, which are used during labor for feto-maternal monitoring. These methods have some restriction in real time monitoring & due to which patient as well as fetal face inconvenience [5]. The limitations created by above-used techniques is overcome by a proposed method called non-invasive bio-impedance.…”

“…Feto-maternal monitoring is crucial for determining the health of the fetus during pregnancy and labor. Important factors for this assessment include fetal movements, size, head circumference, growth, amniotic fluid volume, and placental position [5]. These physiological and morphological characteristics of the developing fetus can be measured using a variety of monitoring methods.…”

It is impossible to overestimate the importance of the fetal monitoring approach in the field of obstetrics. The review study illustrates the wide range of fetal monitoring techniques used, from basic feto scope auscultation to more sophisticated electronic fetal monitoring (EFM) technologies in Engineering Society. The survey highlights the significance of constant monitoring throughout labor to identify any indicators of fetal distress and act quickly to ensure that necessary interventions are made in a timely manner. Furthermore, the paper presents an experimental study for Fetal Monitoring, which system is based on the bio impedance principle. The innovative technique described in this work is noninvasive, user-friendly, cost-effective, and suitable for mass health care, and it may be used by the impoverished population and basic health workers. Finally, the review highlights the importance of standardized protocols, continuous research, and healthcare professional training in order to increase the accuracy and effectiveness of fetal monitoring approaches..

“…Electrocardiogram (ECG) can be defined as a graphical representation of bioelectrical signals helpful in determining the functionality of the heart through the analysis of graphic representation obtained during the measurement of cardiac cycle of the person or human body. The aim of the biomedical research is to continuously improve the diagnostic devices and develop non-invasive methods of health monitoring, in addition to upgrading already existing devices, thus reducing the cost involved [1][2][3][4][5][6]. The ongoing research predicts that the main cause of prenatal death is heart defects, as congenital heart defects easily occur during the formation of the heart at the initial stage of pregnancy [7][8][9][10].…”

During the pregnancy, fetal electrocardiogram (FECG) is deployed to analyze fetal heart rate (FHR) of the fetus to indicate the growth and health of the fetus to determine any abnormalities and prevent diseases. The fetal electrocardiogram monitoring can be carried out either invasively by placing the electrodes on the scalp of the fetus, involving the skin penetration and the risk of infection, or non-invasively by recording the fetal heart rate signal from the mother’s abdomen through a placement of electrodes deploying portable, wearable devices. Non-invasive fetal electrocardiogram (NIFECG) is an evolving technology in fetal surveillance because of the comfort to the pregnant women and being achieved remotely, specifically in the unprecedented circumstances such as pandemic or COVID-19. Textiles have been at the heart of human technological progress for thousands of years, with textile developments closely tied to key inventions that have shaped societies. The relatively recent invention of smart textiles is set to push boundaries again and has already opened the potential for garments relevant to medicine, and health monitoring. This paper aims to discuss the different technologies and methods used in non-invasive fetal electrocardiogram (NIFECG) monitoring as well as the potential and future research directions of NIFECG in the smart textiles area.
