MamaNatalie Birthing Simulator

Reduce postpartum and neonatal complications to provide safer maternal care

More with less: A low-tech birth simulator with high impact

MamaNatalie is a cost-effective way to deliver high impact in your obstetric simulation program. In a randomized controlled trial of birth simulation for medical students¹, MamaNatalie was found to be as effective for training medical students on how to perform a vaginal delivery as a high-end simulator. Learners can train on normal delivery, post-partum complications and neonatal resuscitation to improve management of skills and communication from ambulance to delivery room.

Post-partum hemorrhage

Effectively manage the #1 cause of maternal death during childbirth

Reduce blood transfusion rates
Research shows that training with MamaNatalie leads to a significant reduction in severe post-partum hemorrhage and a reduction in blood transfusion rates after birth.²

Life-saving evaluations
Learn to evaluate the placenta, and identify uterine firmness. Practice performing uterine massage and bimanual compressions. Enable staff to identify critical blood loss and respond according to protocol.

Multi-professional simulations
Enhance team communication and exercise clear leadership with multi-professional simulations. Use debriefing to include reflection and self-assessment.

NeoNatalie

Newborn care and resuscitation

Positioning and delivery
Train on normal and complicated delivery. Assess fetal heart sounds and examine skull with fontanels on newborn with realistic size and weight.

Initial steps of resuscitation
Rehearse newborn resuscitation and perform bag-mask ventilation – chest will rise with correct technique.

Realistic appearance
Use squeeze-bulbs to simulate birth cries, spontaneous breathing, palpable umbilical pulse and auscultation of heart sounds.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 300,000 women die during pregnancy and childbirth every year and more than 2 million babies die during or soon after birth.Most of these deaths are preventable. By providing birth attendants around the world with opportunities to improve skills and competencies to manage life-threatening complications, we can help save many of these lives.
