Implementation and evaluation of a pilot antenatal ultrasound imaging programme using tele-ultrasound in Ethiopia
CPAR’s FIT-funded work to bring ultrasounds to women in rural Ethiopia is featured in the Journal of Telemedicine and Telecare. Co-authored by a team of Canadian and Ethiopian doctors, including Dr. Ivar Mendez from the University of Saskatchewan, and CPAR’s own clinical lead in Ethiopia, Dr. Felagot Tadesse, of St Paul’s Hospital Millennium College, along with CPAR Project Manager, Sandra Abeje, the following article looks at our use of technology to pair CPAR-trained midwives and health workers in the field with obstetricians in distant hospitals to reduce birth complications and reduce mother and infant mortality. |
