Makerere University - End Beneficiary
Project Lead(s): Zoe Sekyonda
Makerere University is designing and testing a point-of-care early diagnostic strip that expecting mothers can use at home to self-screen for preeclampsia. Goals include developing 200 test strips that can accurately detect the level of biomarker proteins from urine and inform the user if they are at risk of preeclampsia, clinical verification of the prototype and confirmation of user acceptability through a validation study in Uganda.
