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.
