Abstract

Objective: to design a protocol for the capture of electrohysterographic signals, for the prediction of preterm delivery. Materials and methods: exploratory - descriptive, purposeful study. For the design, a documentary review of qualitative and quantitative scientific research articles was carried out, in English, Spanish, they were consulted in sources of biomedical information with words from specialized thesauri such as MEsH and DeCS, they were consulted in databases: PubMed, Scielo, IEEE, among others. The search expressions were: Electromyography, uterine muscle and protocol. No specific protocols for uterine electrohysterography were found, which is why the publications referring to electromyography protocols in general were taken, finding a total of 193 publications, of which 23 articles were selected, published between the years 2012 to 2020. For the analysis the research method called integrative review was used. Results. The protocol establishes the criteria that must be taken into account before and during the procedure, the equipment and materials required, and contraindications, to capture the record of electrohysterographic signals. Conclusion. Health care protocols are fundamental since they standardize the processes that must be followed in capturing signals, minimizing possible complications during and after the procedure, to the benefit of the mother-pair son.
