This study looked at a new wearable device called neoSpot, used by community health workers to check vital signs of pregnant women during outreach in Lusaka, Zambia. Most women and health workers liked the device because it was fast, easy to use, and could measure many health signs at once. At first, some women were worried about using it, but those fears went away after learning more. Overall, neoSpot was seen as a helpful tool for antenatal care in the community.
