Conditions: Pregnancy Related
Interventions: echOpen O1 Handheld Ultrasound device
Countries: Senegal
Pregnancy follow-up in a country with limited resources in decentralized areas usually consists of a clinical examination exclusively because of a lack of access to additional examination equipment and qualified personnel to use them. However, the pregnancy follow-up relies in part on the visual investigation by ultrasound scanners that estimate the risks of morbi-mortality for the mother and child during and after pregnancy. The WHO recommendations support at least one ultrasound before 24 weeks of amenorrhea. Thus, at the same time as a usual clinical examination, the possibility of visually assessing certain relevant criteria would help to increase the effectiveness of follow-up visits without complicating the care journey. A simple ultra-portable device would be an opportunity for caregivers to facilitate the detection of complications and thus offer a more adapted follow-up and orientation. This would allow, in contexts where resources are limited, to improve monitoring and limit the risks of complications due to inappropriate management.
