Abstract
A multihospital community health care system installed and implemented a new perinatal clinical decision support software program in October 2020. This system included artificial intelligence to assess uterine contractions and to display an alert if uterine tachysystole (UT; more than five contractions in a 10-minute period averaged over 30 minutes) was detected. Only one study was identified in the literature that demonstrated that the rate of UT decreased after implementation of this perinatal system. The rate of UT at the community health care system was unknown. The purpose of this multisite study was to evaluate the effect of the new perinatal system on the of the incidence and management of UT at two obstetric hospitals in the health care system.
