A team of doctors from the research group in Infectious Diseases at Vall d’Hebron Institute of Research (VHIR) and the Infectious Diseases Unit at Vall d’Hebron University Hospital (HUVH) coordinate the initiative for buying an ultrasound machine for the Hospital Nossa Senhora da Paz de Cubal, located in the center west of Angola. The equipment is worth 11,000 euros and the fundraising campaign will be open until the 1st of June in the "http://www.rockethub.com/projects/23103-un-eco-para-cubal-angola-haz-que-tu-ayuda-resuene" crowfunding site Rocket Hub.Nossa Senhora da Paz de Cubal is a private center which gives service to the Angola’s national health system and every year attends more than 20,000 people from the province of Cubal. Despite the extreme poverty of the infrastructures in the country, the hospital is a reference in the region for the quality in the medical attention, thanks to the effort in the training of staff. During 5 years, Vall d’Hebron has been participating in this training. Due to the difficulties in the access to diagnostic techniques, Vall d’Hebron’s team participated in a 6-month training course on Ultrasounds addressed to the staff of the African Hospital. The best pupil had the opportunity to complete his training in the Radiology Service at HUVH and a few months later, he returned to Cabul with an old ultrasound machine, which eventually broke down. For that reason and to improve the quality of the medical assistance, the doctors from Vall d’Hebron have started this fundraising campaign through Rocket Hub. Dr. Israel Molina, responsible of the research line in International Health and Tropical Medicine from the research group in Infectious Diseases at VHIR, leads this initiative together with 7 doctors.
