Sana'a – Discussion on enhancing performance of Cardiac Center at Al-Kuwait University Hospital

Sana'a - SABA: The regular board meeting of the Cardiac and Catheterization Center at Al-Kuwait University Hospital was held today at Sana'a University, chaired by University President and Board Chairman, Dr. Mohammed Al-Bukhaiti. The meeting brought together key university officials, including Assistant President for Medical Colleges Dr. Abdulhafid Thawabah, Assistant President for Scientific Centers Dr. Zaid Al-Warith, Assistant President for Media Affairs Adel Al-Habbabi, and Director of the Cardiac Center Dr. Salah Al-Shawki. The session focused on mechanisms to enhance the center's performance and improve both its medical and research services. Dr. Al-Shawki presented a report detailing the outcomes of his recent visits to several European cardiac centers. He announced agreements enabling Al-Kuwait Hospital's Cardiac Center to participate in joint scientific studies and publish its research in reputable European journals. The board approved the formation of a committee to evaluate the center's solar and electrical power systems and another to review patient intake procedures and service fees, ensuring they align with humanitarian considerations and leadership directives to offer high-quality care to the underprivileged. A partnership agreement with the Zakat Authority was also approved, aiming to support patients unable to afford treatment. The Zakat Authority will oversee this initiative to ensure transparency and fairness. The meeting also called for the expedited development of a dedicated website for the center within the university's official site. The board instructed the immediate submission of a staffing needs plan to the university administration to proceed with recruitment in accordance with applicable regulations. Additionally, it approved draft documents for new diploma programs in echocardiography and cardiac nursing, pending academic ratification. Preparations are also underway for a scientific day event on cardiovascular disease and catheterization, scheduled for August at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences. The board also discussed the potential for organizing a broader scientific conference in the near future. The board expressed its appreciation for the support of the Capital Municipality, particularly its funding of new medical equipment including an electrocardiograph and a coronary artery imaging device. This step reflects institutional commitment to advancing healthcare services. Dr. Al-Bukhaiti praised the dedication of the center's staff and reaffirmed the university's commitment to providing all necessary resources and equipment to help the center fulfill its humanitarian mission. He also emphasized the need for a clear administrative and financial framework to ensure professional handling of incoming cases. Dr. Al-Shawki commended the university president's support for various initiatives at the center, including the launch of the catheterization unit, the dialysis unit, the 'Stent for Life' project, and the alternative energy project. He highlighted that the center now accommodates 100 beds, up from just four previously.

The Guardian: lives of hundreds of infants in Gaza threatened by ban on import of baby formula

London – Saba: The British newspaper, The Guardian, revealed on Saturday warnings from doctors in the Gaza Strip of a escalating humanitarian disaster threatening the lives of hundreds of infants due to the severe shortage of baby formula and Israel's ban on its entry into the besieged Strip. The doctors confirmed to the newspaper that Israel continues to prevent the import of baby formula and essential nutritional supplements for breastfeeding mothers, leading to the death of some mothers from starvation and malnutrition, while others suffer from deteriorating health conditions that prevent them from breastfeeding their children. Dr. Ahmed Al-Farra, head of the pediatric department at Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis, said that the supply of baby formula in his ward is only enough for one week. The doctor has run out of formula milk for premature babies, and is forced to use regular formula and distribute it to the children under his care. According to the report, hundreds of infants are in immediate danger, with deaths among them recorded in recent weeks. Doctors described this as a "worrying sign of an impending famine crisis" that could decimate Gaza's most vulnerable population, particularly children and newborns. The Guardian quoted medical teams as saying that the conditions in Gaza are "unbearable," and that the lack of basic food supplies and primary healthcare will lead to an "unprecedented health catastrophe," amid the continued deterioration of the health system and the scarcity of humanitarian supplies. This report comes at a time when international organizations are increasingly warning of widespread hunger and malnutrition in the Strip, following months of a severe blockade imposed by the Israeli enemy, preventing the entry of sufficient food and medical aid. This threatens a widespread humanitarian crisis unless the blockade is lifted immediately. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print
