Save Newborn Lives in Syria

Newborn babies need much love, warmth and care, and this is what they find in Al-Ekhaa hospital in Atma camp in north of Syria where they open their little eyes and enjoy the great care.

Thanks to Allah, SEMA managed through your generous contributions and continued support for this campaign to purchase a group of medical supplies and equipment to expand the provided services in the newborn Intensive Care Unit.

We would like to thank you and share with you the joy of receiving the new technologies to the hospital, which means a better care during the first and the most important days of the newborn's life.

From now on, we can receive a larger number of neonates to the ICU section, reduce the referrals to the Turkish hospitals and consequently mitigate the risks of transporting the newborn babies. This also means a higher quality of medical services offered for the little souls, which would not have happened without your response to our calls.

Al-Ekhaa Hospital staff saves the life of a child after she was born in the hospital.

A female child, called R.A, was born in Al-Ekhaa Specialized Hospital, supported by SEMA, through an elective cesarean section delivery without any major complications. The baby was examined immediately after birth and all of the vital signs were normal.

However, few hours later, she developed a slight dyspnea and was consequently moved to the incubators section. In the morning of the following day, the dyspnea worsened, so the health care team conducted new examinations and it was realized that she had bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax.

An emergency thoracentesis was performed for the child by a specialized supervisor in Al-Ekhaa Hospital, and the child was put on ventilation. Her case was closely followed up by a group of SEMA's consultants who are responsible for supervising the ICU unit through online means.

After several days, the child's case noticeably improved so she was removed from the ventilator and her feeding was gradually scaled up until she was discharged of the hospital and became in good condition.

Join us and contribute to supporting this hospital so it can provide the quality services needed to save the lives of many newborn children in north of Syria
