Pharma Bureau, the representative body of research based multinational pharmaceuticals in Pakistan, has donated biomedical devices to Covid-19 isolation unit and negative ventilation system to medical ICU of Ruth Pfau Civil Hospital Karachi.
Portable X-Ray machine with trolley, ECG machine with tray and 4 heart monitors all worth Rs 2.54 million and a negative ventilation system worth Rs 5.85 million were given to COVID 19 isolation unit of Ruth Pfau Civil Hospital.
"Civil Hospital Karachi on the frontline in battle against Covid-19 and we being the stakeholder in healthcare system, doing our best to support government and healthcare community to counter this pandemic in Pakistan," said Ayesha T. Haq, Executive Director of Pharma Bureau.
She said Covid-19 patients require a completely separate facility for screening, isolation, treatment and step down as a result they cannot be mixed in with other patients coming to the hospital as the virus is highly contagious and spreads easily.
She further said the negative ventilation system is critical to ensure that the MICU constantly has fresh air and all contaminated air is removed from the MICU. This will ensure the safety of doctors and other healthcare professionals and all staff entering the MICU. It purifies the air and is a major factor in ensuring they do not get the virus while working at MICU.
