After years in the making, my mom (and a friend of hers) have finally seen their product hit the shelves (here). They are both midwives currently stationed in Las Cruces New Mexico. The Accu-Sound is a uterine sound with a unique sliding ring that provides nurses and doctors more accurate measurements. I provided some initial 3D models and dimensional drawings that were used to convey the design of the tool to the manufacturer.
I have rarely seen anyone who cares about the work they do as much as my mom. She is constantly expressing her concerns about the patients she sees and the practices that take place in here clinics and hospitals. So in here quest to be the best nurse she can, she has found a way to make an attempt of improving the profession that she has enjoyed so much.
What is a uterine sound you may ask... Turns out there are many uses for it both medical and non, but in the medical field they are often used to take measurements of internal female parts.
