Teamwork at SCH
As our capabilities at Soddo Christian Hospital expand, we are working together as a team to make diagnoses, and provide cutting edge treatment for patients. The other day, we had a woman present to the Emergency Room with upper abdominal pain and fever. The ER docs did a great job with the bedside ultrasound finding what appeared to be either a fluid collection or a mass in her liver (top left picture). Then, a CT scan by the Radiology Department confirmed that it was indeed an abscess in the liver (lower pane). Finally, our expert radiologist teamed up with our surgeons (that's our chief resident Dr. Segni in the top right picture) to do an ultrasound-guided percutaneous drain. This is a minimally invasive way to get the infection out instead of a big operation.
We are so proud of all of our services working together to get the best outcomes for patients! Praise God for new technologies and teamwork!
