LifeWrap suit to treat PPH

Still In Development Last Update: January 11, 2013

The 'LifeWrap' is a simple neoprene and Velcro device (much like the bottom half of a wet suit). It is a non-pneumatic anti-shock garment (NASG) designed for people with lower body trauma that has been re-purposed for obstetrical hemorrhage in low resource countries.

The LifeWrap continuously and safely applies lower body counter pressure to stabilize women suffering from obstetric hemorrhage, effect resuscitation and arrest further bleeding.  The LifeWrap team has 2 new publications as of 2010 (see below).
