Telemedicine consultations. Sukhanove

19.06.23

The second telemedicine consultation in the village of Sukhanove, a de-occupied part of the Kherson region.

Requests from village to village are repeated, as are common problems. This time we had a patient with a blood pressure of 170 and another with a sugar of 11. People need more attention from doctors to monitor chronic diseases.

Telemedicine consultations. Urozhaine

27.05.23

We consulted 16 patients in the village of Urozhaine (Kherson region, de-occupied territory).

Many older people, people with reduced mobility, and people with disabilities stayed in these territories. Many have chronic diseases like diabetes or hypertension (we had a woman with sugar 17 at the consultation).

These people need more attention from doctors. It is necessary to monitor their health, review and correct their treatment plans and drug dosages, and select the type of drugs. All of this must be done regularly, but people have not seen doctors for months. We're glad to renew access to family medicine and doctor's consultations!

Telemedicine consultations. Vyrivka

26.05.23

16 patients in the village of Vyrivka, a de-occupied part of the Kherson region.

In the front-line areas, many dispensaries have been destroyed. This village also does not have such a building now, so the nurse uses the house where her grandmother used to live for the work of volunteer doctors.

All patients received essential medical examinations (sugar, blood pressure, saturation, cardiogram if necessary) and a doctor's consultation, needed referrals and prescriptions for drugs. One patient got a reference for urgent hospitalization.

Telemedicine consultations. Vysoke

25.05.23

Our second visit to Vysoke, a de-occupied part of the Kherson region.

This time we had 16 patients. Starlink, computer, printer and all the necessary equipment for medical examinations — and doctors can connect from Kyiv and give quality medical consultations.

One patient again had a blood pressure of 200, so we stabilized her and gave a treatment plan. Everybody got their prescriptions, recommendations, and medicines immediately on the spot if needed.

Telemedicine consultations. Maksym Gorky

20.05.23

We consulted 21 patients in the village of Maksym Gorky, Kherson region, de-occupied territory.

It is not the first time we have had many patients with high blood pressure; one woman had a blood pressure 220. Another patient discovered diabetes for the first time at our appointment. She has had a strong heartbeat for several years and constantly wants to drink, but nobody measured her sugar and didn't consult about this before.

There are many similar requests. Shortness of breath for three months. Two months of noise in the head. The legs swell for a year. People here do not receive the necessary medical care in time. We are happy to come and help as we can.

Telemedicine consultations. Vysoke

19.05.23

14 patients on online doctor's consultations in Vysoke, a de-occupied part of the Kherson region.

A number of patients had high blood pressure; three even had hypertensive crises. We gave emergency medical assistance to stabilize them and provided them with further treatment plans.

The roads in the region are very bad, and the distances are long. It will not be possible to arrive quickly. We're glad to provide needed medical help in time.

Telemedicine consultations. Novogrygorivka

18.05.23

23 patients in Novogrygorivka, a de-occupied part of the Kherson region.

People did not receive the necessary medical care for a long time, so the majority's requests were complex and hard. Two patients had a blood pressure of 200, and other problems included leg cramps or noise in the head that started after the missile attacks.

Many patients received several referrals to specialized specialists and medical examinations because it is necessary to understand the causes of their health problems more thoroughly. We are glad to bring family medicine back to these areas so people can get referrals and find out what's causing their issues with their health!
