Duke Uganda Neurosurgery Haglund
In August of 2007, 30 members of a Duke University Medical Center neurosurgical team supported by the Duke Global Health Institute and the Duke Global Surgery Project brought 9 tons of medical equipment worth $1,300,000 to Mulago Hospital in Kampala, Uganda where the hospital had only one ventilator and surgical equipment that was archaic at best. The team performed 30 surgeries and set up 5 state of the art operating rooms, 6 modern recovery room beds and 8 ICU beds complete with surgical microscopes,drills, ventilators, monitors, and other critical medical equipment from used surplus at Duke and new equipment from Synthes, Integra, Promedical, Baxter, Lorenz, Marathon Medical,Cardinal Health Care, and many other wonderful companies .
