Researchers from the Mayo Clinic (USA) reported that they have developed an artificial intelligence system that can predict the outcome of childbirth.

The technology has already begun to be applied in clinical practice. AI algorithms have been developed as a potential replacement for traditional pregnancy charts, which can give a general idea of ​​how labor is progressing, but cannot account for all of the many variables that can affect the ultimate success of labor. The researchers built the model using data from 66,586 births, about 22% of which ended in so-called "adverse outcomes." The algorithms have been trained to take into account more than 700 variables related to childbirth and the delivery process.
This included information collected both before the onset of labour, including the patients' baseline clinical data and the results of their last prenatal clinical examinations, and throughout the process illustrating their condition from hospital admission to delivery. The model continues to be tested in real maternity wards.
