Our team was tasked with the mission of creating an integrated digital backbone with AI-enabled decision-making support to guide pregnancy care in secondary regional care centers in lower and middle income regions; along with, envisioning a unique way for midwives and graduate nurses to use specific tools for risk assessment, monitoring, and decision-making in antenatal care. O.Sah is a solar-powered, non-invasive, antenatal care kit created for secondary regional care centers that helps graduate nurses determine, measure and monitor gestational age, glucose levels, blood oxygen, blood pressure, and infection. It eliminates the need to use an ultrasound device, which in many regions can revel the sex of a baby before it is born, often soliciting a forced and dangerous abortion onto the pregnant woman. Graduate nurses will conduct simple urine tests using the collapsible urine receptacle with the disposable urine receptacle liners.
Graduate nurses then soak a disposable color constant, or color changing strip, for two minutes into the sample. The color constant will react accordingly, and using the o.sah app downloaded onto the tablet provided into the kit, graduate nurses photograph the color changing strips which the native AI analyzes a digital constant. The AI then reports data back on the o.sah app for the graduate nurse to easily view. With these urine tests, graduate nurses can test for a patient's gestational age, glucose levels and various potential infections. The kit also includes a wearable device that graduate nurses place on their patient's arm. The device is activated through the app and takes blood pressure and blood oxygen readings from the wrist. These readings are transmitted wirelessly to the o.sah app for graduate nurses to view and evaluate. Provided cleaning supplies are also available to maximize sanitation. The kit and tablet are powered by an internal battery that is charged from the solar panels on the outside.
High density foam sits within the kit to prevent damage to the kit from potential earthquakes and movement of internal components during travel. It features backpack straps, a handle, and feet at the bottom for graduate nurses to be able to carry and travel with ease. Ultimately, o.sah's goal is to reduce maternal mortality rates on a global scale. With this safe, non-invasive kit that eliminates the need of the use of an ultrasound device, o.sah helps graduate nurses, identify, monitor and measure key factors, gestational age, glucose levels, blood pressure, blood oxygen and infection, that affect the success of a pregnancy and the well-being of a mother.

With these urine tests, graduate nurses can test for a patient's gestational age, glucose levels and various potential infections. The kit also includes the o.sah wearable device that graduate nurses place on their patients wrist. The device is activated through the app and takes blood pressure and blood oxygen readings in under a minute. It includes an inflatable wristband for the blood pressure reading and a LED sensor that is designed to push up against the patient's skin to measure blood oxygen levels. Once these readings have been taken, the patient data is transmitted wirelessly to the o.sah app for graduate nurses to view and evaluate. Provided cleaning supplies are also available to maximize sanitation for the wearable device and urine receptacle. The kit and tablet is powered by an internal battery that is charged from the solar panels on the outside.
High density foam sits within the kit to prevent damage to the components from potential earthquakes and movement during travel. It features backpack straps, a handle, and feet for graduate nurses, who are typically traveling from center to center, to be able to carry and travel with ease. Ultimately, o.sah's goal is to reduce maternal mortality rates on a global scale. With this safe, non-invasive kit that eliminates the need of the use of an ultrasound device, o.sah helps graduate nurses, identify, monitor and measure the key factors gestational age, glucose levels, blood pressure, blood oxygen and infection, that affect the success of a pregnancy and the well-being of a mother. With o.sah, pregnant women are able to have a safe pregnancy in lower and middle income countries.
