Maternal Newborn Health Innovations (MNHI)
MNHI is a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC) global start-up company focused on advancing maternal and newborn health, which are among the world’s most challenging unmet health needs. We have completed development of an entirely new method to assist the birth of newborns in circumstances of prolonged, difficult labor: the OdonAssist™ inflatable device for assisted vaginal birth. OdonAssist is the first truly new and innovative birth assistance product in over 100 years. MNHI will launch OdonAssist in 2025, starting in Europe, with the goal of making it accessible globally over the coming years across high-, middle- and low-income countries and populations. Our vision is a world where all births are safe, delivery is gentle, newborns are healthy, millions of lives are saved, and the miracle of new life is enhanced for everyone.
