Wireless Cloud-based Scan Conversion through a Single Element Transducer for Fetal Heart Rate Assessment using Doppler Ultrasonography with Mobile Application

Using ultrasonography recommends Antenatal care in improving maternal and fetal outcomes, especially in breeding programs. However, some veterinary clinics and farms in rural and remote areas cannot invest in ultrasound devices, given that these machines are costly. This study developed a low-cost wireless Doppler ultrasound device for remote fetal assessment by utilizing a Doppler module. The developed device will assess the fetal status, estimated gestational age, and estimated parturition through the fetal heart rate reading. It was tested to 40 samples, comprising 20 dogs and 20 cats, with a 95% accuracy rate than the Veterinarian's assessment.
