Kyiv Clinical Hospital No 15 receives new anesthesia ventilator from Boris Lozhkin

To help Kyiv fight the coronavirus, the Charitable Foundation of Boris Lozhkin and Nadiia Shalomova has donated to the Kyiv Clinical Hospital No 15 a high-end WATO EX-20 Anesthesia Ventilator, which will allow the doctors to provide effective medical care to patients in the moderate and severe stages of the disease.

WATO EX-20 uses the latest architecture for anesthesia supervision, with an intelligent accounting system for the required volume of air. It allows maintaining the respiratory function of patients of different ages, including children.

A significant advantage of the equipment is its ease of use. Doctors will be able to learn to operate it in the shortest possible time.

"Unfortunately, Kyiv has become one of the largest foci for the coronavirus spread in Ukraine. The number of the coronavirus cases in the capital has already crossed the 1,000 mark. Experience of other countries shows that the level of hospital equipment availability during the coronavirus epidemic has a decisive influence on the effectiveness of medical care. Therefore, the support of clinics and doctors is so important. Absolutely any. Especially in Ukraine, where the state of the healthcare system is far from ideal," said Lozhkin.

Let us recall that this is not the first donation from the Boris Lozhkin Charitable Foundation to the medical facilities in Kyiv. Not so long ago the doctors of the Prof. O.S.Kolomiychenko Institute of Otolaryngology by the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine received protective overalls, next generation respirators, goggles and disposable gloves from Nadiia Shalomova and Boris Lozhkin.
