The goal is to offer high-quality diagnostic services to the people of the country at an affordable price, reducing the need for patients to seek medical treatment abroad and spend their hard-earned foreign currency. This will be achieved by providing diagnostic services that meet international standards. Additionally, renowned General Practitioners, Consultants, and Professors in various medical fields will provide outpatient treatment. The focus is also on promoting health education and medical services. A day care center will be established to cater to follow-up care for cardiac, renal, and oncology patients. The long-term objective is to establish a fully equipped specialized hospital offering tertiary medical services. Furthermore, the plan includes the establishment of satellite collection centers.

Bronchial Washing for C/S for AFB
Bronchial Washing for C/S for AFB (Culture and Sensitivity for Acid-Fast Bacilli) is a procedure used to detect mycobacterial infections, such as tuberculosis (TB), in the lungs. During a bronchoscopy, a sterile saline solution is introduced into the bronchial tubes and suctioned out to collect mucus and cells. This sample is cultured to identify any bacterial or fungal infections, specifically testing for Acid-Fast Bacilli (AFB), which are indicative of TB. Sensitivity testing is performed to determine the most effective antibiotics or anti-TB medications. Risks include infection, bleeding, or discomfort. The results help guide appropriate treatment for TB or other mycobacterial infections.Place for Ads
