Overcoming challenges when the whole country is fighting against the Covid-19 pandemic, Gemadept Corporation (Gemadept) took on a series of concrete and practical actions to join hands with everyone to push back the pandemic. At the same time, the Company provides physical and spiritual motivation for the frontline hospitals in the fight to save patients from Covid-19. Continuing the donation to the Vaccine Fund, purchasing medical equipment for hospitals, awarding scholarships to children of doctors and nurses and more, on the morning of August 18, 2021, representatives of Gemadept donated the advanced Anesthesia machine and patient monitors to Thong Nhat Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City.

The high-end Anesthesia machine with the brand of Atlan (Germany) donated by Gemadept is an anesthetic machine that "can do everything" for all patients. The platform design gives full flexibility for most spatial conditions, with diverse uses for different patients, including adults, children and infants. The Anesthesia machine operates on the principle of high precise piston ventilator and does not depend on compressed air pressure. The machine is designed to allow the users to switch from self-breathing or manual resuscitator to mechanical ventilation by simple operation.

In addition, Gemadept gave 2 Patient Monitors with optimal features for monitoring adulst, children, and newborn patients in the operating room and emergency resuscitation. The 12-inch TFT LCD monitor touch screen simultaneously displays up to 11 channels. The standard and advanced monitoring parameters include ECG/pulse rate, respiratory rate. Trend data retention of all parameters in tabular and graphical format is up to 120 hours. The feature of zooming in on tracking parameters, besides being able to display 4 main parameters on a 12-inch screen, makes it easier for users to observe from a distance, etc.

Speaking at the meeting, Assoc. Dr. Le Dinh Thanh, Director of Thong Nhat Hospital expressed his appreciation for Gemadept's contributions, which not only allowing the hospital to have more modern equipment but also creating more motivation and strength for the doctors working there. In addition, Assoc. Dr. Le Dinh Thanh further shared that also on August 18, the Tan Binh multi-level Covid-19 field hospital with a scale of 1,000 beds operated by Thong Nhat Hospital officially went into operation to limit patient movement and also minimize the patient's condition going from mild to severe. The addition of high-end equipment gifted by Gemadept is very timely and meaningful to be put into use immediately for treatment of patients.

As a responsible enterprise to the community, with a noble and humane tradition, Gemadept has always joining hands with the country to build a better society. Contributing to a better life for each Vietnamese person is one of the noble and sacred missions of the Company throughout the process of establishment and development over the past three decades.
