Paediatric cardiovascular diseases have been referred to as of injustice access care is inequitable globally. For example, Africa only has 78 cardiac centres, with 22 located in Sub-Saharan Africa. Most these centres rely on visiting surgical teams provide clinical care. While essential care, building a sustainable and locally run workforce critical addressing inequities This paper considers the role south-to-south partnerships programmes using Rwanda’s paediatric surgery programme an example.
Burnout, depression, and anxiety are increasingly recognized as common among health care providers. Risks for these conditions exacerbated in low-resource settings by excessive workload, high disease burden, resource shortage, stigma against mental issues. Based on discussions requests to learn more about burnout during the Vital Anaesthesia Simulation Training (VAST), our team developed VAST Wellbeing, a 1-day course providers recognize mitigate promote personal professional well-being.
While the number of cardiac surgery programs in sub-Saharan Africa are increasing, it is still insufficient. With only 0.08 pediatric surgeons per million people, few centers routinely perform surgery. This has led to reliance on humanitarian medical missions or referral abroad for most African nations. study outlines outcomes Rwanda's first sustainable program.
