Problem
Intrauterine fetal hypoxia, a condition where the fetus is deprived of adequate oxygen, can lead to intrauterine deaths and injuries if not detected and addressed promptly. Current methods for monitoring fetal well-being during pregnancy and labor may not provide real-time, continuous insights into the fetal electrophysiological state.
Solution
The startup offers a non-invasive diagnostic device that continuously monitors fetal electroencephalogram (EEG) and electrocardiogram (ECG) waveforms during pregnancy and labor. By analyzing these waveforms in real-time, the device detects patterns indicative of intrauterine fetal hypoxia, providing timely alerts to healthcare providers. This early warning system enables clinicians to intervene promptly, potentially reducing the incidence of adverse fetal outcomes. The device aims to improve the accuracy and speed of fetal distress detection, leading to better management of high-risk pregnancies and deliveries.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes obstetricians, perinatologists, labor and delivery nurses, and other healthcare providers involved in prenatal care and delivery.
