Story
Pace4Life is responding to this situation by undertaking a project that will see thousands of unused pacemaker, ICD, CRT devices including accessories sent to a charity hospital in India and providing complete implant support by highly qualified healthcare professional team from Milton Keynes University Hospital, United Kingdom.
This will enable us to deliver costly healthcare to a population where 90% cannot afford life-saving treatment such as Pacemakers/ICD/CRT devices implantations. instead of the wasteful practice of binning unused pacemaker, ICD, CRT devices in the United Kingdom.
During this charity hospital visit we will provide high quality treatment for as many patients as we can, aiming to complete at least 50 CIED device implants and electrophysiology study + RFA ablation for those in need. Dr Mark Davies, Consultant Cardiologist and Electrophysiologist will perform procedures and also share his experience with complex procedures in a serious of lectures to enhance their work knowledge with existing team in the charity hospital, accompanied by myself (Cardiac Physiologist) and Irfan (Cardiology Registrar).
We are the team of 4 healthcare professional in total travelling to a charity hospital in India to provide cardiac medical device implants and ablations between March 23rd, 2024, to April 6th, 2024, at free of cost. It will have a total cost of £2000 per person to include flight and accommodation.
We are seeking your generous financial support towards covering part of this medical device implant camp in India.
Any help would be gratefully received.
Pace4Life is seeking to establish a process whereby people/patients donate old pacemakers to Pace4Life to be tested, and either reused or recycled.
