When you’re facing the complex, life-threatening effects of vascular disease, being told you need urgent surgical care to avoid amputation is overwhelming enough. Right now, at Peterborough Regional Health Centre, vascular patients often need multiple procedures on different days to save life and limb. Each carries its own risk, recovery, and stress.
A hybrid operating room would change that.
This advanced surgical space would allow PRHC’s experts to perform multiple procedures at once, in a single room, during a single session.
For patients, that means fewer risks and complications, a shorter hospital stay, only one recovery, and most importantly, more time at home with family and friends, doing what they love with less pain.
This is the future of vascular care. A hybrid OR will make better, more advanced, lifesaving treatment available close to home for the more than 600,000 people in our region who rely on PRHC.
But this $6 million cutting-edge technology won’t be funded by the government. It will be possible only through donor support. Help bring safer, faster vascular care to PRHC, because every second counts.
