We provided the Department of Profoundly Premature Infants of the National Children's Hospital "Ohmatdyt" with the necessary equipment for parenteral nutrition, namely, to pay for the maintenance of the BIO BAN 48 laminar flow box using the necessary components with the replacement of HEPA filters. Also, as part of the aid project, we purchased an adapter cable for Oximax Sp02 sensors to monitor the vital functions of children's bodies. And all thanks to the support of the benefactors of the dobro.ua platform!
The main goal of the intensive care unit for profoundly premature infants at the National Children's Hospital "Ohmatdyt" is to save lives and provide the highest quality care for premature infants, whose weight sometimes does not reach 1 kg. One of the key challenges doctors face when caring for these vulnerable babies is providing them with adequate nutrition to support their growth and development. In some cases, premature babies cannot tolerate enteral nutrition that comes through the digestive system. In these situations, parenteral nutrition is used as a means of delivering essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream through a catheter. For this purpose, special laminar flow boxes are used, where catheters and all consumables are disinfected and sterilized under HEPA filters.
The components of parenteral nutrition may include a combination of carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals and electrolytes. The specific components and the amount of each are carefully calculated by a healthcare professional to meet the individual nutritional needs of the young patient. This is an integral part of preterm care and requires special attention from doctors.
While parenteral nutrition can save the lives of these fragile babies, it requires special equipment and resources to administer it safely and effectively.
That is why your help was so necessary.
Thank you to everyone who helps!
