"Hundreds more communities are at risk of losing maternity care because of the serious financial and workforce challenges rural hospitals are facing. Safe, high-quality maternity care requires having physicians and nurses available on a 24/7 basis, and rural hospitals are experiencing dramatically higher costs to maintain adequate staffing."

Have you seen our latest story in The Guardian? ➡️ https://lnkd.in/ehuYgfUN "The head of maternal care, chikondi chiweza, knew she had less than 30 minutes to deliver Kaphamtengo’s baby by caesarean section. Having delivered thousands of babies at some of the busiest public hospitals in the city, she was familiar with how quickly a baby’s odds of survival can change during labour. Chiweza, who delivered Kaphamtengo’s baby in good health, says the foetal monitoring programme has been a gamechanger for deliveries at the hospital. “[In Kaphamtengo’s case], we would have only discovered what we did either later on, or with the baby as a stillbirth,” she says."

"Women are more likely to receive good care during pregnancy where AI and other clinical software tools are used, a large review of research has found. In a paper published in eClinicalMedicine researchers have conducted a review of over 12,000 papers and 87 articles for different AI and related software tools, investigating the impact of their use in maternity settings. A meta-analysis of 35 included studies found the odds of improved outcomes was 1.69 times higher in women cared for using CDSS, with data from over 5.2 million pregnancies in both High-Income and Low-and-Middle-Income Countries."

At PeriGen , we’re proud to lead the way at a pivotal moment in history, where AI is transforming the future of women’s health and driving meaningful advances in care. "AI offers an unprecedented opportunity to enhance global well-being and human health — particularly women’s health. For most of history, women’s health has faced systemic barriers including limited access to funding and research, leading to inadequate treatment solutions and access to care. We see a future where AI has the potential to help overcome these barriers, and one where women are at the forefront of leading solutions and research efforts. "
