Oei

Prof. Oei is a Professor of Electrical Engineering at the Eindhoven University of Technology, affiliated with the Eindhoven MedTech Innovation Center and the Center for Care & Cure Technology. Their research focuses on biomedical diagnostics, fetal health monitoring, and signal processing systems. Key areas include electrohysterography, fetal echocardiography, and artificial intelligence applications in obstetrics. Prof. Oei leads the Biomedical Diagnostics Lab and collaborates on projects like extra-uterine life support systems and simulation-based medical training.

Research interests emphasize innovative technologies for perinatal care, such as non-invasive fetal monitoring and telemedicine approaches. Recent work explores fetal cardiac mechanics, maternal mental health impacts on birth outcomes, and clinical training methodologies in low-resource settings. Over 200 peer-reviewed publications and 4,494 citations reflect contributions to medical technology and obstetric innovation.

Notable projects include developing electrohysterography for uterine monitoring, evaluating fetal strain via speckle tracking echocardiography, and advancing AI-based cardiotocogram analysis. Collaboration with global teams addresses maternal-fetal health challenges, particularly in low-income regions through simulation-based training programs.

Prof. Oei’s work bridges engineering and clinical practice, with a focus on translating technical solutions into real-world healthcare applications. Current efforts include optimizing fetal health assessments and improving obstetric emergency preparedness through interdisciplinary innovation.
