THE PROBLEM
Loss of life
Three million infants die every year in low and middle income countries
Overcrowding
Care facilities are too understaffed to provide adequate care
Inefficiency
Monitoring vitals is the second most time consuming activity nurses perform
Inadequate funding
These facilities lack the resources to purchase or run high end equipment
For neonatal care facilities in low resource settings, there is a need to optimize the collection and analysis of vital signs data and the identification of high-risk neonates in order to increase the available nursing manpower and decrease infant mortality rates.
"Low resource clinics struggle to attend to every patient resulting in missed diagnoses and complications. NeoVate helps to streamline the clinic's workflow, allowing efficient data collection and patient management ” – Dr. Azadeh Farzin, MD, MPH
