Cardiotocography showing calculation of Montevideo units
Montevideo units are calculated by subtracting the baseline uterine pressure from the peak contraction pressure of each contraction (arrows) in a 10-minute window and adding the pressures generated by each contraction.
FHR: fetal heart rate; bpm: beats per minute; mmHg: millimeters of mercury; kPa: kilopascals; UA: uterine activity.
