Experiments in the measurement of intrauterine pressure.
A series of experiments investigating the quality of the signals obtained from intrauterine catheters was conducted in the labour rooms and laboratories. Clear evidence of signal attenuation due to partial blockage of catheters was obtained. Some methods which might help to overcome these problems are discribed.
