Simulation Device for Uterine Atony in the Identification of Postpartum Hemorrhage
The HER model is a low-cost uterine atony model. Its implementation empowers medical professionals to practice identifying uterine atony, with potential implications to improve the diagnosis of PPH. Current limitations include use of high-cost fabrication methods, such as laser cutting and 3D printing. Lower-cost options could include constructing the abdomen using cardboard or wood and hand molding the vaginal canal using clay.
