Our Mission
At Backyard Biomedical, we care about the safe delivery of a healthy baby. That’s why we focus on easing the stress of both expecting mothers and delivery physicians. By providing a rapid and accurate way of measuring fetal distress levels, we hope to reduce the amount of unnecessary C-Sections; giving everyone in the delivery room peace of mind.
