The objective: to reduce the morbidity and mortality rate in low-income patients in the city of Valencia, by carrying out specialized medical diagnoses, through diagnostic ultrasounds, cardiac monitoring and blood pressure monitoring together with the implementation of a regenerative medicine program and the creation of the Diagnostic Training Center.
This requires the acquisition of a Doppler Ultrasound Equipment with four transducer, a cardiac arrhythmia monitor and a blood pressure monitor, which allow progress from the consultation stage to the specialized diagnosis
With the acquisition of this equipment, we expect to serve 4,200 patients during the first year
The population of the city of Valencia is 1,373,193 inhabitants. 79% of this population is in a situation of extreme poverty.
Patients who go to public hospitals do not have the resources to undergo specialized tests and in most cases the diagnoses constitute a death sentence.
According to the Ministry of People's Power for Health, until 2018, the percentages of the main causes of morbidity and mortality in our country are:
• 30% cardiovascular diseases
• 16% Cancer
• 11% Transmissible diseases
• 19% maternal, perinatal and nutritional
• 12% Injuries
• 4% Chronic respiratory diseases
• 8% Diabetes.
The areas that can be covered with the acquisition of diagnostic medical ultrasound equipment are:
• Cardiac ultrasound
• Abdominal and urological ultrasound
• Breast ultrasound
• Muscle or tendon ultrasound
• Cervical and thyroid ultrasound
• Transrectal ultrasound
• Transvaginal ultrasound
The areas that can be covered are:
• Arrhythmias
• Heart disease
• Coronary artery disease
• Heart failure
• Heart valve disease
• Congenital heart defects
One of the most relevant aspects of this project lies in the implementation of the Regenerative Medicine Program, which promotes the improvement of the physical and mental conditions of the participants.
The implementation of the project includes: consultation, specialized diagnosis, dental care, application of traumatological procedures and a regenerative medicine program. Comprehensive patient care, allowing the beneficiaries of the project to regain their health, increasing their life expectancy and their integration into productive activities, reducing the morbidity and mortality rate in low-income communities.
