The Lab at the Golden & District hospital is in need of funds to purchase some new equipment including a digital microscope system, an upright plasma freezer, and a high performance lab refrigerator.
Digital Microscope Systems integrate digital technology with high quality microscope optics into a seamless easy-to-use system.
"This microscope is used to examine urine samples for blood, crystals, and cells. These results are used to help diagnose and monitor patients with kidney disease. Our current microscope has aged, and we hope to upgrade to a more efficient and user-friendly device that would be easier for laboratory staff to use." Dr.Daniel Manders.
Medical-grade -30C freezers are designed for the unique needs of
critical healthcare applications such as the storage of plasma and other
blood components.
"This freezer is a precisely temperature-controlled device used to store plasma. Plasma is a component of blood and given to patients to treat severe bleeding in trauma, blood clotting disorders and liver disease. Our current freezer requires replacement to ensure continued provision of this life saving blood component." Dr. Daniel Manders
