"We must do more to help practitioners provide more timely treatment in order to prevent serious complications or death. So many maternal deaths are avoidable. My mission is to stop the unnecessary loss of so many precious mothers' lives by helping clinicians and patients have access to the tools and information they need to keep both mother and baby safe" expressed Dr. Kuppuswami.
