North Manchester General Hospital - Saturation Monitors x10
UPDATE: This project was completed in 2009.
Over the next five years Children’s Services in Greater Manchester will be transformed as part of the Making it Better Strategy. The opening of the New Children’s Hospital in central Manchester will transform services for children in the region, and will absorb many of the specialist services formerly offered at Booth Hall and Pendlebury.
Many of the local services for children and babies that were provided by Booth Hall and Fairfield Hospital will stay in North Manchester and a new Women and Children’s Unit is being built to handle the increased number of patients. This will be a purpose-built unit to be completed in 2010.
The medical team at North Manchester has identified the equipment needed, and there is a shortfall in the funding available. We have agreed to provide equipment to ensure that the new unit at North Manchester can take its place within the region as a top quality health care provider.
Oxygen Saturation Monitors enable medical staff to accurately assess the pulse rate and oxygen saturation of a patient. It is necessary to take accurate readings of oxygen in the blood for a range of breathing disorders and infections. In particular this equipment is vital for assessing children with asthma and bronchitis, to ensure enough oxygen is being absorbed by the lungs.
The monitors are £1,350 each and 10 are required making a total cost of £13,500.
