Birth asphyxia is a leading cause of cerebral palsy, seizures, developmental delay and death in term babies. Current methods of detecting fetal distress are inaccurate and can be misinterpreted. In this project we are using new technology to develop a device to continuously assess fetal pH, a direct measure of fetal stress in labour. We will validate our sensor using neonatal cord blood at delivery and assess the accuracy of our device using a fetal sheep model of hypoxia.

出生窒息是导致脑瘫、癫痫、发育迟缓和足月儿死亡的主要原因。目前检测胎儿窘迫的方法是不准确的，可能会被误解。在这个项目中，我们正在使用新技术来开发一种设备来连续评估胎儿的PH值，这是分娩中胎儿压力的直接测量。我们将在分娩时使用新生儿脐带血来验证我们的传感器，并使用胎羊缺氧模型来评估我们设备的准确性。
