Development and use of mechanical devices for simulation of seizure and hemorrhage in obstetrical team training.
Simul Healthc. 2008; (1): 42-6
The leading causes of pregnancy-related death are embolism (20%), hemorrhage (17%), and pregnancy-induced hypertension (16%).The Obstetric and Mechanical Engineering Departments at Stanford University worked together to create inexpensive devices that were used in high fidelity simulations to replicate 2 of the leading causes of maternal mortality: hemorrhage and eclampsia (seizure).
