Zingatia
A health tech initiative aimed at helping women in PREGNACARE adhere to the recommended number of clinical visits by scheduling reminders and sending healthy insights via WHATSAPP. We seek to use AI and machine learning to reduce non-adherence levels to clinical appointments for pregnant mothers. Using the power of Big Data! We intend to support women by providing pregnacare accessories at affordable costs during critical phases of pregnancy when they are helpless and vulnerable.
Our Vision
To increase the number of prenatal care visits to all our subscribers from an average of 1 to 4 or more positioning Zingatia as the number one AI pregnacare assistant globally.
The problem
Non-adherence to clinical attendance protocol is a barrier to a healthy pregnancy. Complications that happen during pregnancy and childbirth are the most leading causes of maternal mortality and morbidity among women whose age ranges from 15 to 49 in developing countries. Most research findings show that most of the maternal and neonatal deaths are preventable; one of the strategic and important key steps for reducing maternal related mortality and morbidity is antenatal care directly by detecting and treating complications in the earlier period starting from the onset of pregnancy till delivery. Two-thirds of pregnant women (69 percent) have at least one ANC contact against the recommended 4.
Good care during pregnancy is important for the health of the mother and the development of the unborn baby. Pregnancy is a crucial time to promote healthy behaviors and parenting skills. Good ANC links the woman and her family with the formal health system, increases the chance of using a skilled attendant at birth and contributes to good health through the life cycle. Inadequate care during this time breaks a critical link in the continuum of care and affects both women and babies.
Zingatia offers to provide reliable and timely visit reminders and information to women in prenatal care in order to ensure they attend the required number of clinical visits for a healthy pregnancy, labor, delivery, and infancy for mom and baby. This service is offered via WhatsApp. Upon registration, the service will remind you when your appointment is due. The back end will be powered by an AI service that will have the capability to respond to queries from time to time as well as identify opportunities to supply affordable pregnacare goods and services.
