Every year, approximately 600K women in the UK endure painful and traumatic childbirth experiences that profoundly impact their mental health. Such suffering generates a need for NHS expenditures of £52M in direct perinatal mental health support and lost revenue of over £16B/year in potential revenue related to insufficient assistance with post-traumatic stress.DeskInternational is developing MOM360, a biofeedback-based device to better guide birthing mothers' pain management through personalised breathing support in an immersive extended reality environment. This solution is especially important to underrepresented minorities, whose need for pain management is often met with scepticism from healthcare providers. The first-of-its-kind system will be directly responsive to the pain and anxiety needs of users, increasing positive birth experiences and reducing postpartum traumatic stress.

在英国，每年约有60万妇女遭受痛苦和创伤性的分娩经历，这对她们的心理健康产生了深远的影响。这种痛苦产生了对NHS支出的5200万英镑的直接围产期心理健康支持的需求，以及与创伤后压力援助不足相关的潜在收入损失超过160亿英镑/年。DeskInternational正在开发MOM 360，这是一种基于生物反馈的设备，通过沉浸式延展实境环境中的个性化呼吸支持，更好地指导分娩母亲的疼痛管理。这种解决方案对于代表性不足的少数群体尤其重要，他们对疼痛管理的需求经常受到医疗保健提供者的怀疑。该系统将直接响应用户的疼痛和焦虑需求，增加积极的分娩体验，减少产后创伤压力。
