Offline Maternal Triage System for Rural Nigeria. # 🩺 SafeMother: Maternal Emergency Triage System **Track:** Public Health & Community Impact **Status:** Hackathon Prototype v2.2 **Deployment Target:** Rural Primary Health Centers (PHCs) in Nigeria > **Developed by:** Ejidike Michael Ikechukwu > *Biomedical Engineering Student | David Umahi Federal University of Health Sciences (DUFUHS)* --- ## 🚨 The Problem In Nigeria, maternal mortality is rarely caused by a total lack of medical knowledge—it is caused by **delays**. In rural clinics (PHCs) across Ebonyi and other states: * **Frontline workers** are overstretched and often lack specialized obstetric training. * **Specialist doctors** are rarely on-site. * **Internet connectivity** is unreliable or non-existent (making cloud apps useless). * **Legacy Hardware:** Clinics often run on donated, older desktop PCs.
