Telemedical system for fetal home monitoring with smart selection of signal analysis algorithms is presented in this paper. Fetal monitoring signals are provided by a mobile instrumentation consisting of bioelectrical signal recorder and tablet PC which retrieves and processes the data as well as provides wireless data transmission based on Internet. The fetal surveillance system enables analysis, dynamic presentation and archiving of acquired signals and medical data. Novelty of the proposed approach relies on smart fitting of the algorithms for analysis of the abdominal signals in mobile instrumentation, as well as on controlling of the fetal monitoring session from the surveillance center. These actions are performed automatically through continuous analyzing of the signal quality and the reliability of the quantitative parameters determined for the acquired signals. Using that approach the amount and content of data transmitted through remote channels to the surveillance center can be controlled to ensure the most reliable assessment of the fetal well-being.
