Fetal and Maternal Health Screening
Providing affordable fetal monitoring for decision support in low-resource environments
Overview
Our group works to help avoid one of the greatest afflictions of low and middle income countries, perinatal mortality, which has reached an estimated 2.5 million deaths in 2009. These deaths could be avoided through a better means of monitoring fetal well-being. This project aims to develop an affordable and easy-to-operate device to enable a more accurate extraction of fetal vital parameters.
