FOGSI Art of Birthing Conclave —
Womb to World Con 2026
Organised by the Lucknow Obstetrics & Gynaecological Society
The Conference
The Art of Birthing Conclave brought together obstetricians, gynaecologists and neonatal specialists from across the country at the Atal Bihari Vajpayee Scientific Convention Center, Lucknow — for two days focused entirely on one question: how do we make birth safer?
The theme Safe Birth framed every session around the idea that maternal and newborn outcomes are inseparable — and that the tools, training and teamwork available at the moment of delivery decide the next decade of a child's life.
Acuity NeoRes at the Conclave
We showcased the Acuity NeoRes monitor and its companion guidance app at the conference — demonstrating, live, how a single probe captures SpO₂, heart rate and temperature at birth and feeds them into step-by-step NRP guidance for the bedside team.
The response from obstetricians was genuinely encouraging. Many asked the same thing: "Why doesn't every labour room have this?" — and that question is exactly what we're building toward.
What We Demonstrated
-
Live vitals to guidance — the Acuity monitor connecting wirelessly and driving real-time NRP steps in the app
-
Golden Minute workflow — how the system walks a team through the first 60 seconds after birth without missing a step
-
Offline-capable operation — the same guidance works in rural and tier 2/3 settings with no internet
-
Automated event capture — every resuscitation generates a structured report, replacing manual note-keeping under pressure
Who We Met
-
Obstetricians from private maternity hospitals across Uttar Pradesh, looking for bedside decision support for their labour rooms
-
Neonatologists interested in standardising NRP practice across multi-centre networks
-
Nurse educators exploring how NeoRes can reinforce resuscitation skills between refresher trainings
-
Hospital administrators evaluating NeoRes for NABH-aligned quality and audit readiness

The people who made it happen
A conference presence is only as strong as the people who show up and give it their all. At the FOGSI Art of Birthing Conclave, three people did exactly that — and we are deeply grateful.
