Discover how the CHISON SonoEye handheld ultrasound empowered the 14th China Medical Team in Papua New Guinea to perform congenital heart disease screenings for children in a remote orphanage. Learn about its portability, durability in extreme conditions, and high-quality imaging. A testament to CHISON's commitment to healthcare innovation and global humanitarian efforts.
In the fight to make advanced medical care accessible worldwide, handheld ultrasound machines are emerging as transformative tools. A shining example of this is the recent work of Dr. Zijun Chen from Chongqing Medical University's Yongchuan Hospital, who joined the 14th China Medical Team to Papua New Guinea. Armed with the CHISON SonoEye handheld ultrasound machine, the team delivered vital medical care at an orphanage in Port Moresby.
The screening event lasted over 3 hours, during which the SonoEye remained continuously operational, scanning 54 children and identifying three with suspected atrial septal defects. This achievement underscores the unmatched portability, durability, and imaging quality of the SonoEye, which rivals traditional cart-based systems. Despite challenges such as high ambient temperatures and prolonged usage, the device performed flawlessly, ensuring accurate diagnostics in less-than-ideal conditions.
For clinicians working in underserved areas, the SonoEye opens new possibilities. Its handheld design simplifies bedside examinations, and its intuitive workflow reduces the learning curve for new users. This makes it a perfect fit for rural and remote settings, where access to medical equipment is often limited.
The use of SonoEye in Papua New Guinea exemplifies its potential to revolutionize medical outreach:
Essential for diagnosing in Emergency, FAST and E-FAST, trauma, particularly at bedside.
Beyond Cardiology, the SonoEye is highly versatile for applications like Internal Medicine, Musculoskeletal, Obstetrics, Breast Imaging, etc.
Lower upfront costs compared to traditional ultrasound machines, making it a viable option for both doctors and patients.
Lightweight and easy to carry, it allows physicians to reach the most remote communities.
Despite its small size, SonoEye delivers crystal-clear images comparable to high-end stationary machines.
This mission in Papua New Guinea highlights not just the technical excellence of SonoEye but also CHISON's dedication to improving healthcare access globally. We are proud to see the SonoEye supporting medical teams in delivering care to vulnerable populations, as in this meaningful mission.
