Soft Wearable Patches for Stillbirth Prevention [ 1/1/2021 - 12/31/2023 ]

Research Grant

Brief description The Australian stillbirth rate has remained unchanged for 20 year. Current approaches to identify fetuses at risk of stillbirth is unsuccessful. Women who had stillborn commonly reported on abnormal baby movements prior to the loss. Unfortunately, there are no robust way to assess fetal movements. This project aims to develop a low-cost, lightweight, soft, conformal and non-intrusive wearable fetal movement monitor AI system to understand and reduce stillbirth nationally and globally.
