Cancer treatment involves using advanced medical technologies. Tabletochki purchases equipment for examination, diagnosis, surgery, laboratory tests, treatment, patient life support, etc. to the Ukrainian hospitals, financially supported by the Foundation.
In 2018-2019, the Foundation purchased the following 3 major medical devices :
• in collaboration with our partners, Tabletochki purchased Immunoassay Analyzer for Western Ukrainian Specialized Children’s Medical Centre. This equipment measures the medicine level in child’s blood. An accidental overdose of aggressive chemotherapeutic agents can kill a kid, and this equipment helps to ensure safe therapy.
• for the same hospital, we purchased Mobile C-arc X-ray machine. Today children, who are unable to walk, can be examined in their rooms. This device also helps to increase the safety of the surgery.
• Neurosurgery microscope was acquired for National Children’s Specialized Hospital OKHMATDYT. Using the device, neurosurgeons can safely perform spinal cord and brain tumor surgeries without the risk of vital areas damage. That saves children’s health and improves the quality of their lives.
Furthermore, we regularly supply hospital departments with medicines, disposables, and lab reagents, renovate children’s patient rooms, operating and procedure rooms, along with other facility premises. All of these activities are carried out to make children, their parents, and doctors feel comfortable and stay focused on a quick recovery.
Cancer treatment is complicated and lasts for a long time. Tabletochki supports a child through every stage of the disease. Examination, diagnostics, search for and procurement of medicines, treatment coordination in Ukraine and overseas, psychological support and organization of special events for children ‒ all of this is done by Tabletochki team and our volunteers.
