Unfortunately, there are more and more children who are born prematurely. They are born tiny with small lungs, but they want to live and breathe at full. It is vital to constantly monitor the pulse of a premature baby, because the pulse is very weak. Regular medical equipment is not suitable for such patients. Special extrasensitive sensors to monitor the heart rate and oxygen saturation for infants to the clinic "Okhmatdyt" are needed.

Two years ago, when "Svichado" charity fund started this project, we could not even image the resonance it will have. Prematurely born children need not only the tender and constant love and care of parents, but also the monitoring and the support of vital functions – breathing and heartbeat. Because of the immaturity of children's bodies, there are very often disorders of these functions up to respiratory arrest and cardiac arrest. The monitoring and the control of these functions is possible with the use of special devices – pulse oximeters. Duration of pulse oximetry depends on the maturity of the child, the nature of his illness. The child lives, grows and develops under the control of pulse oximeter.

An important detail is the pulse oximetry is the sensor. These sensors are very needed in the ICU nursing very preterm infants of "OKHMATDYT", where about 300 premature born children with the weight from 500 grams to 2 500 grams receive treatment and are nursed. In the process of nursing of every premature born child 2-3 sensors are needed, thus around 600-700 sensors are needed annually. Nowadays the technology can save lives and health of our tiniest children. The quality of care is determined by the efficiency and safety of all technologies.

In September, 2014 the premature nursing department received 124 sensors from "Svichado" charity fund as a humanitarian aid. All of our children, their parents and staff department express their sincere gratitude to all participants of humanitarian support.
