Implementing Point-of-Care Ultrasound to Save Lives of Women and Children in Yemen

The Yemen humanitarian crisis has left an estimated 19.7 million people in need of access to essential healthcare, up 18.7% from last year. The health system is on the verge of collapse resulting from a critical shortage of health care providers (HCPs) and functional health facilities (51% remain) disproportionately impacting vulnerable populations such as women and children. Moreover, diagnostic imaging is rarely accessible in Yemen, leaving HCPs with little support.
