Installation of an oxygen concentrator at Hospital Sant Joan de Déu | Mabesseneh (Sierra Leone)


Location: Mabesseneh (Sierra Leone)

Term: 2019

Objective:

The Azimut O2 project aims to commission an oxygen concentrator and a low pressure oxygen storage system.

Actions:

  • Installation of the equipment
  • Training of technical staff
  • Online monitoring

Added value:

Commission an oxygen generator in the Hospital’s paediatric area to help provide children suffering from a disease with associated hypoxia access medical oxygen. Many children in this region die due to lack of oxygen both at the time of delivery and from diseases such as pneumonia. Having medical oxygen can help lower infant mortality rates in the hospital and improve the children’s living conditions.
