OneWomb Launches AI PPH Toolkit to Reduce Maternal Deaths

Nairobi, Kenya – 17/07/2025 – Doctors Explain Digital Health Co. LTD has unveiled its groundbreaking AI-powered Postpartum Hemorrhage (PPH) Management Toolkit, a new addition to its flagship maternal health platform, OneWomb. The innovation is set to transform how African healthcare providers detect, prevent, and manage PPH—one of the leading causes of maternal deaths worldwide.

A Critical Step Toward Saving Mothers’ Lives

Postpartum hemorrhage accounts for thousands of preventable maternal deaths in Africa each year, often due to late diagnosis, resource constraints, and limited emergency response systems. The new OneWomb PPH Toolkit leverages artificial intelligence, mobile technology, and localized clinical protocols to bridge these gaps and provide lifesaving decision support to frontline health workers.

Key Features of the OneWomb PPH Toolkit

• AI-Driven Risk Assessment – Calculates PPH risk based on multiple clinical factors, using color-coded visual indicators and personalized prevention tips.
• Stage-Specific Management Guides – Offers step-by-step protocols for Stage 1–3 and refractory PPH, tailored to facility levels (primary, secondary, tertiary) and available resources.
• Blood Loss Estimation Tools – Supports both visual and weight-based assessments, adjusts for clots, and provides clinical interpretation with next-step recommendations.
• Localized African Context – Includes resource-appropriate guidance, facility-level protocols, and emergency referral pathways.
• Integrated Location Services – Uses Google Maps API to locate nearby healthcare facilities, color-coded by capability level, with emergency contacts.
• Customizable User Profiles – Configurable by professional role, facility type, resource availability, and language (English, French, Portuguese, Swahili).
• Educational Resources – Provides WHO guidelines, training videos, and Africa-specific research.
• Mobile-Optimized – Fast-loading, intuitive interface that works on all devices, even with limited internet connectivity.

Transforming Maternal Care in Africa

Speaking about the launch, Dr. Levi Cheruo Cheptora, CEO and Founder, Doctors Explain Digital Health Co. LTD said:

“This is more than a digital tool—it’s a lifeline. By empowering health workers with real-time, evidence-based guidance, we aim to drastically reduce preventable maternal deaths caused by postpartum hemorrhage across Africa.”

The toolkit builds on OneWomb’s proven impact in maternal and newborn health. The platform has already reached over 15,000 mothers, trained 2,500+ community health workers, and delivered more than 900 e-learning courses across the continent.
