TB Vets Supports Maternity Ward
Once again, the TB Vets Charitable Foundation has made a
generous donation to Kootenay Lake Hospital Foundation. This
recent donation was used to purchase a TCM5 Flex Monitor for
the Maternity Ward. This device provides non-invasive, continuous
monitoring of oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in newborns.
Through the use of a skin sensor, the monitor will provide
information that would only have been available by drawing
blood, thereby reducing the number of times blood needs to be
drawn on these newborns.
As Clinical Operations Manager Trina Larson explains: “We
are excited to use the best technology available to support safer
and more comfortable care for our littlest patients. Every drop
of their precious blood matters to their recovery and transition
to breathing in the ‘outside’ world. TB Vets’ generous donation
enables us to
carefully monitor
wee ones who are
receiving respiratory
support such
as continuous positive
airway pressure
(CPAP) or
mechanical ventilation.
The TCM-5
Flex’s real-time
monitoring aids
a faster response
to changes in our
patient’s condition
and improves
our workflow
Learn More:
planning with our respiratory therapist and pediatricians, supporting
the sustainability of their services in our community.”
TB Vets CEO, Kandys Merola says: “TB Vets is committed to
honouring the deep rooted history of our Veterans by continuing
to support Kootenay Lake Hospital Foundation with much
needed respiratory equipment. The $20,000 donation for the
purchase of a TCM5 Flex Monitor is the latest piece of equipment
delivered to the hospital
thanks to our
generous donors,
that will provide a
meaningful solution
for the community.
