Nobles Hospital has been granted two new ultrasound machines donated by the Henry Bloom Noble Trust.

 

The machines offer greater capability than those they are replacing, with enhanced image quality and new features including internal battery, easy mobility and remote servicing. 

 

They will be used in the maternity unit labour ward, the neonatal intensive care unit and at outpatient clinics. 

 

Ultrasound technology uses sound waves to provide images of the inside of the body to help clinicians diagnose the causes of pain, swelling or infection in internal organs and are also used to monitor the development of babies during pregnancy, with modern technology allowing parents to see their unborn child. 

 

Health and Social Care Minister David Ashford MHK said: ’I would like thank the Henry Bloom Noble Trust and its donors on behalf of patients and staff for their generous donation. The Trust is a staunch and loyal supporter of Noble’s Hospital, always there to support us and unstintingly focused on providing equipment or funding services which will be a positive benefit for patients.’
