Alterations in Maternal–Fetal Heart Rate Coupling Strength and Directions in Abnormal Fetuses

Alterations in Maternal–Fetal Heart Rate Coupling Strength and Directions in Abnormal Fetuses

Because fetal gas exchange takes place via the maternal placenta, there has been growing interests in investigating the patterns and directions of maternal-fetal cardiac coupling to better understand the mechanisms of placental gas transfer. We recently reported the evidence of short-term maternal–f...
