Trainings in the Copperbelt Region 
This month we have been training health care providers in two of the largest hospitals in Zambia. We took the LifeWrap and experienced trainers from the US and Nigeria to share skills with midwives, doctors, nurses, anesthesiologists, and surgeons. Women who hemorrhage in these facilities will be resuscitated using this life-saving device. In fact, immediately after the Copperbelt training there were two women with massive hemorrhage whose lives were saved by the newly trained providers using the LifeWrap!

Getting the message out! 
This month, leaders in the field of obstetrics and gynecology from around the world meet to discuss new research and startegies to improve women's health on a global scale. At this prestigious forum, UCSF Safe Motherhood Program researchers and international colleagues will be presenting no less than eight presentations, 2 posters and a whole symposium on the LifeWrap - really extending the findings from our research and hopefully garnering more interest and support for a worldwide scale-up of LifeWrap use.
