Anemia affects about 20% of the world’s population. However, current diagnostic technologies are expensive and invasive, leading to high mortality and morbidity. We aim to build a computer vision-based mobile application to accurately estimate blood hemoglobin levels, within +/- 0.5 g/dL, using nail bed images.

Due to lack of effective fetal heart monitoring, stillbirths are highly concentrated in low and middle income countries, with over 2.5 million occurring each year. We aim to create a low cost, informative, and sustainable fetal heart monitor to improve birth outcomes in Ethiopia and worldwide.

Group B Streptococcus transmission is the leading cause of death for newborns 0-6 days old in developing nations. While universal maternal screening enables treatment that prevents transmission in the U.S., screening is inaccessible in regions with poor healthcare infrastructure, and vaccine efforts have not been successful.

The incidence of neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) is on the rise, and the nursing shortage continues to stretch hospitals thin. There currently exists a gap in solutions capable of clinically alleviating NAS without pharmaceutical treatments that integrates smoothly into current care workflow.

Kidney stone prevalence is rising globally and disproportionately impacts low-income countries. Only 7% of low-income countries have community-level access to quantitative urinalysis testing that can help prevent stone recurrence. There is a need for an easy-to-use device that can provide quick, accurate urinalysis results.

Pulse oximeters measure blood oxygen saturation level (SpO2), a critical indicator of a patient's respiratory health. However, recent studies have shown that SpO2 measurements are biased in dark skin tone patients. This bias can delay the diagnosis of hypoxemia and delivery of clinical interventions, especially in the Global South.

Postpartum Hemorrhage (PPH), a condition characterized by continuous, heavy bleeding after birth, is the primary cause of maternal death. In low-income areas, PPH is at least 375% more likely to be fatal, resulting in a clear need for low-cost training models to aid in the diagnosis of PPH.

Access to mental health services especially in the sub Saharan Africa. Many of these people are experiencing mental-health struggles and are seeking help, but struggle to find the information they need to find the right mental health care provider. Others are mentally stronger and want to help out other people.

Oxygen therapy is a critical resource in low-resource settings (LRS), making oxygen concentrators vital. However, concentrators are vulnerable to electrical damage from brownouts/blackouts common in LRS. These interruptions to patients’ oxygen supply increase mortality rates and poorer health outcomes. Thus, concentrator protection is needed.

To reduce death and unexpected accident occur due to lack of fast emergency service and maintaining health condition of critical patient with reliable and chip products and calling for help during an accident using our product.

With 38 million amputees globally, many of whom live in countries that do not have access to quality healthcare or resources, the need for affordable prosthetics are increasingly prominent. Thumb amputations, in particular, account for 20% of all partial hand amputations and lead to a 40% loss in hand function.

Of the 40 million amputees in developing countries only 5 to15 percent are able to receive prosthetics. Our goal is to create an affordable ankle prosthetic that allows for dynamic motion of the ankle joint and is durable enough to withstand the environment of Indian farming communities.

In Tanzanian hospitals, challenges associated with use of bubble CPAP include unavailability of oxygen humidifiers to moisturize air delivered to neonates. Dry air leads to dry out of useful fluids in the respiratory path and might even cause bleeding. An affordable humidifier is required along with the CPAP.

Blood transfusions due to surgery, injury, disease and bleeding disorders shall always be the topic of interest to improve lives. Transfusing cold blood may cause hypothermia and hemolysis.Blood warmer is a device that is used to warm blood before being administered into the patient’s body

Automate the acid-fast staining procedure for smear microscopy to address the inefficiency of specimen prep and diagnosis of TB at the point of care.

Malaria is a disease caused by a mosquito borne parasitic infection, which can cause severe anemia, acidosis, and hypoglycemia. In 2020, there were an estimated 241 million malaria cases worldwide, with over 550,000 deaths in Sub-Saharan Africa alone. Blood donation rates are below 90% of what is demanded in the region.

In low-resource hospital settings, PPE shortages are a significant problem, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic. Ineffective disinfection methods can lead to masks being used an unsafe number of times, endangering patients and clinicians. Thus, there is a strong need for a device which can sterilize PPE efficiently and without degradation.

While schools in Chiapas, Mexico have access to safe harvested rainwater, school members continue to drink water from unsafe wells due to preferred taste, attributed to its higher mineral content. Thus, there is an unmet need for low-cost rainwater mineralizers to encourage safe water consumption and prevent water-related diseases.

Neonatal hypothermia is a major public health problem in low resource settings, especially prevalent during intrahospital transport. Thus, there is a need for an affordable and robust solution for maintaining optimal temperature of neonates during transport in order to reduce neonatal mortality.

Over 148,000 children die of pneumonia related causes annually; an estimated 40% of those deaths are attributed to a lack of oxygen therapy. According to the NCBI, only 3.5% of existing oxygen concentrators meet health standards in sub-Saharan Africa. Our solution aims to improve upon this technology while meeting low-resource conditions.

Native American communities experience disparities in healthcare access and outcomes, highlighted by higher mortality rates for chronic diseases and a healthcare system that is underfunded compared to other federal healthcare programs. There are currently no data-driven methods to evaluate interventions to perpetuate these disparities.

According to the World Health Organization, six out of ten term babies and eight out of ten preterm babies are affected by neonatal jaundice, with the majority of these infants being from developing countries without access to proper phototherapy. Past solutions failed to recognize that phototherapy causes neonatal hyperthermia.

Neonatal asphyxia is the leading contributor to newborn mortality in developing countries. Few infants survive, and those who do often experience a number of neurological deficits. Treatment is currently too expensive for underserved communities to utilize, accounting for over a million neonate deaths annually to this affliction.

In most African Countries, Medical care is difficult to get especially for patients who reside in remote areas. The manual method of patient record keeping contributes to this problem also. MyCliniQ Health App is a software that addresses these challenges, and helps to bridge the gap between patient and doctors while making the process much easier.

Various techniques, such as diet modification and physiotherapy, have been employed in the outpatient management of hypertension. However, none of these provide prompt intervention to arrest sudden, fatal spikes in blood pressure in the absence of access to appropriate treatment. Consequently, hypertension-related deaths remain a cause for concern.
