My research concerns mainly electronic fetal surveillance during pregnancy and labor. My current project involves computerized cardiotocography in collaboration with researchers at KTH.
About me
I am an obstetrician an a researcher at Dep Women's and Children's Health (KBH), KI. I work as a senior consultant at the delivery unit at Karolinska University Hospital, Stockholm.
Research description
I defended my thesis "Lactate as an early marker of intrapartum fetal hypoxia" in 2014, and I currently supervise two doctoral students.
My main research field is electronic fetal surveillance both during pregnancy and labor. My current project concerns computerized cardiotocography (cCTG) in collaboration with researchers at the Royal School of Technology (KTH).
One part of the project investigates the potential to identify signs of infection after preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (PPROM) with cCTG. Another part investigates whether cCTG can improve the objectivity and reliability of intrapartum fetal surveillance in terms of early detection of fetal hypoxia.
