摘要: 宫缩监测是临床产程管理的一项重要指标，传统的宫缩监测方法在临床使用过程中有较大的局限性及主观性。随着科学技术不断发展，子宫肌电监测技术的突破，为其在妊娠各阶段提供了广阔的应用前景，尤其在早产预测方面。
Abstract: Uterine contraction monitoring serves as a critical indicator in clinical labor management. Nevertheless, conventional uterine contraction monitoring methods suffer from considerable limitations and subjectivity in clinical practice. With the continuous advancement of science and technology, breakthroughs in uterine electromyography monitoring technology have broadened its application prospects throughout all stages of pregnancy, particularly in the field of preterm birth prediction.
