Sehati Telectg

TeleCTG is a medical technology start-up from Indonesia. The idea to develop TeleCTG has been developed since last year (2015) by Dr Ari Waluyo who have immersed himself in remote areas in order to provide medical assistance to mothers and children. One of the main factors behind pregnant women/mothers and children mortality cases is the fact that midwives in remote areas in Indonesia cannot identify foetal distress, due to the fact that CTG devices are very costly. Secondly, even if CTG devices can be distributed to midwives in remote areas, they are unable to correctly analyse the output data, since only an OBGYN is qualified to do so. TeleCTG stands as a solution for a low-cost CTG device that can quickly deliver the output data from remote locations to an OB/GYN at a hospital, who will then analyse the data and provide feedback.
