From pilot to practice: a scoping review protocol mapping the development of AI-enabled solutions for maternal health using technology readiness levels.

ABSTRACT: Maternal mortality remains a critical public health challenge in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where over 92% of global maternal deaths occur. Artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled solutions are increasingly recognised for their potential to improve and expand health services delivered to women. Such solutions can accelerate how health systems address gaps in maternal healthcare, including prevention, early detection, intervention and treatment. However, the extent to which AI-enabled solutions have progressed toward real-world application in LMIC healthcare systems remains unclear. This scoping review aims to systematically map the development of AI-enabled solutions for maternal health by applying the Technology Readiness Level (TRL) framework to assess their stage of advancem
