Since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the Ukrainian healthcare system has been in a state of emergency. The number of patients and the severity of their injuries have multiplied, especially in regions near the 1,000-kilometer-long front line. Many doctors and nurses have also been forced to flee the war, further exacerbating the situation.
In such an emergency situation, as many medical tasks as possible must be transferred to automated systems. Lucas 3 is a device for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)., which is also used in Ukraine. The device can perform CPR with the precise sequence of steps and at the medically necessary pace. This relieves the burden on rescuers, as resuscitation is also a physically demanding task for them.
Resuscitations often take place in cramped conditions at makeshift operating tables. In addition to the actual resuscitation, other medical procedures must be performed simultaneously: stopping bleeding, restoring other bodily functions, suturing, and closing wounds. Therefore, every space at the operating table is valuable, and every pair of hands is essential to saving the patient's life.
Devices like Lucas 3 can significantly improve the survival chances of the wounded. That's why we're raising funds to purchase these automatic lifesavers. Donate now! our fundraising campaign Part. Even many small donations together make a big difference.
