Malene Hegenberger
Born out of frustration with the status quo, midwife Malene Hegenberger invented a new speculum. An iterative process with multiple models and 3D-printed samples resulted in a revolutionary instrument that improves perennial suturing of genital trauma following childbirth. The new design replaces the current metal speculum with a smooth, ergonomic design, increasing accessibility during suturing, allowing the clinician to work more efficiently, alleviating pain for the patient, and providing better post-partum outcomes for the mother.
